Mitten im Vakuum

Group show

Haus der Statistik
Karl-Marx-Allee 1

Opening
14 December 2019, 4 pm

The exhibition title ‚Mitten im Vakuum’ (‚In the middle of a vacuum’) refers to empty spaces that open up in times of social upheaval. A vacuum that absorbs the individual aspiration for change; with the existential quest for impact. A stance that can likewise be found in our present culture and is negotiated within the framework of the exhibition through contemporary artistic positions.

Cruise Collectionsolo exhibition by Enver Hadzijaj Opening 31 JAN 2020, 7 – 10 pm FRAGILE Leipzigerstraße 63 10117 Berlin I always loved watching my sister applying make-up in the morning, that calmness on her face while contouring her lips dark red like all the Yugo girls did. These were the early 90ies and St. Linda Evangelista was watching the scenery from a torn-out magazine page my sister had stuck to the wall. I tried to make her laugh but she was too focused and just poked me in the arm without looking away from the mirror. There was a petrol station near our house to which she would send me to buy red Gauloises for her and sweets for myself. In those mornings we would talk and wonder why things had turned out to be that difficult while she was smoking and drinking coffee from her metal Thermos jug until she left for work always in a hurry.
