Berlin Art Week
Berlin Art Week kicks off today and that means six days and nights full of art openings, art fairs such as abc Art Berlin Contemporary, Berliner Liste or Preview, exhibitions in the most important museums, arty people everywhere in every outfit, dinner and drinks receptions and a hell lot of parties. Berlin Art Week is a new born child for the „Kunstherbst Berlin“ and those of you who want to know more about the idea behind and mission, just see our Berlin Art Week article we did some days ago.
Tuesday: Gallery Openings Day at Berlin Art Week
Almost all big galleries will have their openings on this Tuesday night from usually 6 to 9 pm. We give you the whole list of all major openings but took the freedom to point out some galleries and a very nice PARTEY.
SYLVIE FLEURY @ MEHDI CHOUAKRI // 6–9 PM
One of Berlin’s most known gallerists Mehdi Chouakri will show new works from famous Sylvie Fleury. Her show wears the Do Not Think Of The Color Blue For Thirty Seconds. If you want to know more let Mehdi explain you everything around it at this night.
Mehdi Chouakri // Edison Höfe // Invalidenstrasse 117, entrance Schlegelstrasse
The artist Roman Liska at DUVE BERLIN
DUVE BERLIN // NEW GALLERY SPACE IN XBERG // 7-9 PM
Alexander Duve just moved from Invalidenstrasse to Kreuzberg, opening up his new gallery space not far from Johann König’s church that will be in place next fall. Expect a cool crowd, a white box style room and a special abc | art berlin contemporary viewing: the group show called *Not Safe For Work* featuring Chris Ucco, Dan Shaw-Town, Ed Fornieles, Nazafarin Lotfi, Wyatt Kahn and Roman Liska we just met during our summer at NYC’s Lower East Side.
DUVE BERLIN // Gitschinerstrasse 94/94a, Entrance D, 2 floor
GALLERY ALEXANDER LEVY SHOWS THORSTEN PASSFELD // 6-9 PM
We do like to watch how gallery alexander levy is making its way from a young gallery to an established art spot in town with a very talented eye for young artists. Don’t miss the opening of the exhibition Heiss, Billig, Kurz / Hot Cheap Short presenting new wall objects by Thorsten Passfeld (*1975). His works are playful, ironic, humorous and critical as well as human and light. Alexander Levy call it „with painstaking care“ how Passfeld creates visual universes comprising of plywood, cupboard walls and old floorboards, which he retrieves from buildings about to be demolished or old roof structures.
