Top 5 exhibitions for your art weekend

Austellung / Corinne Wasmuht

Until 1^st November 2014 

If you missed the opening of the current solo show by Berlin artist Corinne Washmut due to the whirlwind of Berlin Art Week then worry not. On until 1^st November, the show at Johan König features a number of her panel oil paintings which deal primarily with light, colour, fragmentation and the depiction of landscapes which although are unknown, ’non-places‘, seem so strangely familiar.
