Haengung #3

Posted on May 28, 2017 by - Allgemein

The contemporary art of the Australian indigenous people is an ongoing passion of Alison and Peter Klein. In their annual trips to Australia they visit galleries and art centers to add dot paintings, photographs and objects to their collection. The Nussdorf Aboriginal Art collection has thus evolved into one of Europe’s largest and finest of its kind.

#3

Mostly large paintings, photographs and objects of different regions of Australia were presented to demonstrate the development of this special art.

Shown were, among others:
Jack Britten, Emily Kame Kngwarreye, Rosemary Laing, Ada Bird Petyarre, Shane Pickett, Michael Riley, Judy Watson

Exhibition Catalog »Hängung #3 – Kunst der Aborigines«

In “Hängung #2, Kunstwerk presented paintings of Alison and Peter Kleins’ many German artists’ works, such as Sigmar Polke, Susanne Kühn and Franziska Holstein, next to many newly collected works of Chinese and American artists. Jane Hammond’s fanciful art works had a special showing on the Exhibition Loft of Kunstwerk.

Contemporary artists have turned more and more to figural art, which was clearly demonstrated here through current pieces of figural portrayals. The manifold relations of modern man to his environment were a main theme of the exhibit. Not individuals, but abstract and shadowy figures emerge in indefinable spaces.

Some of the artists presented in “Hängung #2” were:
Ola Billgren, Martin Damann, Franziska Holstein, Les Levine, Max Neumann, Martin Schnur, Dag Seemann, Eva Wagner

The opening exhibition of Kunstwerk was dedicated to photography. Approximately 100 artworks defined the variety of the photography collection and presented contemporary artists’ interactions with the medium photography in all its facets. The mixture of analog and digital techniques was observed throughout the exhibition and showed artificial worlds and pseudo realities.
