VERONIKA KELLNDORFER

Curitiban2019

VERONIKA KELLNDORFER PARTICIPATES IN THE
14th CURITIBA INTERNATIONAL BIENNIAL OF CONTEMPORARY ART


Veronika Kellndorfer continues her investigations on architecture as real space and as fiction, presenting "The Sources of Light in a Dark Space", a site specific installation at MON, Museu Oscar Niemeyer in Curitiba. Slide projectors, artificial lighting together with the enlarged curtain of Lina Bo Bardis Casa de Vidro evoke a mysterious space formed of colored shadows and reflections.

"The concept of border does not only belong to territory or geography anymore. It has been conceptually expanded and is now part of a bigger universe, one made of broader questions and, overall, more transversal ones. There is already a plural imagination that touches aspects of understood natures." Tereza de Arruda, Curator

Exhibition duration: September 23, 2019 - March 1, 2020

ORIGINAL BAUHAUS - THE CENTENARY EXHIBITION

Reconstructing Modernism, shortly after dawnVeronika Kellndorfer's new work transfers the Barcelona Pavilion into the glass, screen printing in the dimension of architecture.

The Bauhaus existed for only 14 years in Germany, but for 100 years its ideas have now been passed on and its products relaunched, imitated and further developed. Marking the centenary of the Bauhaus’s founding, the Bauhaus-Archives exhibition at the Berlinische Galerie is presenting famous, familiar and forgotten Bauhaus originals and recounting the history behind the objects. Around 1,000 exhibits will be on display: art and design from the Bauhaus-Archives collection, exceptional loans from international collections and artistic positions rethinking the Bauhaus legacy.

September 6, 2019 – January 27, 2020

ART INSTITUTE OF CHICAGO AND THE J. PAUL GETTY ACQUIRE WORKS BY VERONIKA KELLNDORFER

In May 2019 the works National Gallery, Shortly Before Renovation and Succulent Screen have been acquired by the Art Institute of Chicago and The J. Paul Getty Museum, respectively.

The work reflects the empty National Gallery during the process of restoration focusing on its raw materiality; the original steel, glass, and stone coexist with the new materials staged for installation along with the dust and dirt of the construction site.

FICTION AND FABRICATION. PHOTOGRAPHY OF ARCHITECTURE AFTER THE DIGITAL TURN

Fiction and Fabrication gathers nearly 50 artists who build and manipulate images of architectural objects and spaces. Marking 30 years since Photoshop was invented, and digital tools invaded photographic production, this exhibition focuses on the imagery of architecture as a central theme to an expanded practice of photography in contemporary art. At a time when digital tools preside over the making of architectural images for media consumption, fictions stemming from the art world appear here as a critical alternative that questions and expands the concept of architecture.

Participant artists: Aglaia Konrad, André Cepeda, Andreas Gursky, Anja Niemi, Antoni Muntadas, Bas Princen, Beate Gütschow, Carlos Garaicoa, Celine Condorelli, David Claerbout, Dionisio Gonzalez, Doug Aitken, Edgar Martins, Erwin Olaf, Evandro Soares, Filip Dujardin, Gerold Tagwerker, Gregory Crewdson, Hanna Starkey, Hans Op de Beeck, Inês Lombardi, Isabel Brison, James Casabere, James Welling, Jeff Wall, Jonathan Lewis, Lucia Koch, Mafalda Marques Correia, Martha Rossler, Mónica de Miranda, Nick Relph, Nicolas Grospierre, Olivier Ratsi, Olivier Boberg, Patrick Hamilton, Pedro Tudela, Philip Schaerer, Rita Sobral Campos, Rodrigo Oliveira, Roland Fisher, Sabine Hornig, Tatiana Macedo, Teresa Braula Reis, Thomas Demand, Thomas Ruff, Veronika Kellndorfer and Wolfgang Tillmans.
