We are pleased to introduce the digital extension of our current exhibition “Room of One’s Own”. In the complementary online group exhibition, we present works by these three outstanding artists that critically and reflexively question the social and political status of women in contemporary as well as historical contexts: provocatively, as in Goshka Macuga’s video work “Non-Consensual Act (in Progress) First Treatment”, subtly framing, as in Ilit Azoulay’s collage “Room 8”, or challenging, as in Thu Van Tran’s video work “Overly Forced Gestures”. These three iconic works by the artists, whose digital and/or analogue counterparts are already in renowned institutional collections, can be purchased on a separate platform – str-ing – and minted as NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens).

Can an image be both crude and seductive at the same time? Is there a “charm of the totalitarian”? And who lies more blatantly, Vladimir Putin or Mark Zuckerberg?

We are proud to announce that Thomas Ruff has designed this year’s artistic version of “Edition 46” published by Süddeutsche Zeitung Magazine!

The magazine is included in the current issue of the Süddeutsche Zeitung and contains a captivating interview of the artist with Tobias Haberl.

In the first major monographic exhibition of Jeff Wall in the Washington, D.C., area since 1997, the Glenstone Museum exhibits nearly 30 works spanning five decades of the artist's career. This is the largest exhibition of the artist's work in the United States since his 2007 show at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Room 2 of the pavilion displays the impressive range of the pioneering œuvre, from early pictures displayed in backlit lightboxes and black and white silver gelatin prints to more recent large-scale inkjet color prints.

For PUBLIC FIGURE #2 – an annual project by Art in the City (Middelheim Museum) – artist Goshka Macuga (Poland, 1967) rejects the tradition of the “lone hero on his plinth.” Instead, the artist depicts a trans-historic collective of five women whose lives and work shaped and changed society and the arts. The new work pays homage to Chantal Akerman, pioneer cineaste and visual artist; Andrée Blouin, pan-African political activist and member of the first democratically elected government of post-independence Congo; Patricia De Martelaere, philosopher and professor; Marie Popelin, the first woman doctor in Law in Belgium; and Mathilde Schroyens, the first woman mayor of Antwerp.
