The ECHOS exhibition combines works that deal with mirroring and appearances, duplication, (self-) reflection and the echo of the past.
The subject is also reflected in its presentation. Works from different artists, no matter the technique, are shown as virtually belonging together, opening up additional and unexpected aspects and association spaces.
The exhibition contains:
A dialogue with a psychoanalytical computer program from 1969 (‘Eliza’ by Anca Munteanu Rimnic).
A painted portrait of a woman who is holding memories and fictitious events in her hands on image blocks (‘Noli me tangere – Portrait by Leïla’) and the painted picture of a hand deciphering a message using the Lorm alphabet for the deaf and blind (‘Cassette 173’ by Chloë Saï Breil-Dupont).
A self-portrait reflected in magnetic tapes (‘EGO Gregor’) and a film still from ‘The Three Musketeers’ with Lana Turner as Milady de Winter, running a fragment of a magnetic tape through her hand on which a verse by Georg Trakl is recorded: ‘Winter has come behind the hill’ (by Gregor Hildebrandt).
A photograph of stars that only begin to sparkle and glow through the multiple fragmentation of the glass superimposed on every single star (‘La noche estrellada’) and a photograph of a reflection in water, viewed through another reflection in the frame and through structured glass (‘Heiligensee’ by Miguel Rothschild).
A photograph of a picturesque still life with a car mirror (from the ‘Chrono-matter’ series by Nuria Fuster) and another photograph by her, showing an alleged mirror reflection without a mirror of a real hand and a painted hand cut out of a theater poster.
A picture through a magnifying glass with a drawing crumpled into a ball suspended before an ink drawing (‘Blind sight’ by Simon Hehemann) and other drawings of crumpled, painted balls.
An illusion of a glass pane standing in a corner (‘2D – 3D, No. I’ by Stephan Hüsch).
An amorphous black relief that reflects the viewer (‘Searching the light, #6’) and an also-reflective amorphous sculpture (‘Implosion 1 #1’ by Ulrike Buhl).
A photograph of a setup with a mirror on a fox’s territory in which a fox seems to be looking at its reflection (from the ‘Fuchsen’ series by Wiebke Maria Wachmann).

BLANC DE BLANC
VILLA SCHÖNINGEN | Berliner Straße 86 | 14467 Potsdam

CURATORS: Sonia González, Gregor Hildebrandt
CURATORIAL ASSISTANCE: Pola van den Hövel
The blank page of a book as a new beginning, a white dove as a symbol of peace, Buddhist monks wearing white in mourning. Purity, innocence, infinity, perfection, quiet, emptiness, cool. Rarely is any colour as laden with meaning as the colour white.
Blanc de Blancs – connoisseurs of wine use this term for a white wine pressed exclusively from white grapes. Blanc de Blancs also refers to the complex significance of this colour.
Snow falls behind the mountains, an exhibition curated by Berlin artist Gregor Hildebrandt in Copenhagen, serves as the starting point for Blanc de Blancs, to which Villa Schöningen added several other artistic positions. From 19 March to 8 May 2022, Villa Schöningen presents 54 works of art by 38 contemporary artists. As much as these works differ from one another, they all share one formal criterion: they engage with the colour white. With this achromatic colour that signifies not only reduction but complexity.

September 7 to October 16, 2018
NEXT IMAGE is an expression used by Henry Cartier-Bresson, a legendary figure in modern photography, to define the attributes of photography and cinema. He noticed that the 24 images in 1 second always go toward ‘Next’ but soon disappear and become ‘Past’. The basic attributes of photographs always capture ‘Present’, but the situation in the photograph immediately becomes ‘Past’. While considering how to implement the theme of “The Future of Photography” as an exhibition, we decided to borrow this title “NEXT IMAGE” and chose “The Past of the Future” as a subtitle to support the exhibition concept more effectively.

Light plays an important role in Stefanie Hillich’s scenes.
The subjects of her pictures are substantial, presenting what seems to be everyday-situations. She generates a mood, a feeling that one cannot escape from, while playing with the subconscious. Sometimes melancholy, surreal, usually peculiar, with a subtle shift towards the grotesque, her images are characterised by refracted colours. Her view of what she shows us is characterised by a fine sense of humour. The subjects, some of which are reminiscent of theatre stages, are presented with a variety of painting methods.
Wiebke Maria Wachmann presents auratic-appearing light boxes in which a house on a hill, seeming like a figment of imagination, a fairy-tale landscape is shrouded in mist, a view from a window breaks up the nothingness behind it with shutters folding like wings. Light – from weakly shimmering to glaring. The well-known motives, the house, the hill, the landscape, the window – with their familiarity subtly withdrawn from them.
Michaela Nolte: […] „Wiebke Maria Wachmann’s rooms seem filled with latent images that call up vague visualisations, conditions of memory. Marcel Proust equates the appearance of a memory in the mind with the development of a photographic plate that has long been exposed but only contains a latent image until the moment of development. – Doubt, surrounding Wachmann`s work like a fragile sheet of ice, becomes a single certainty. […].“
The exhibition „SCHEIN“ thus uses images of a suggestive presence to dazzle, believe, and doubt.

GANZ GROSSES KINO
Curated by Rachel Rits-Volloch (MOMENTUM), Constanze Kleiner, David Szauder
Heaven (Tree: resin | HMI spot)
Friday 4th March 2016, 9pm – late
Kino International Karl Marx Allee 33, 10178 Berlin
Entry free until 11pm. 6 Euros after 11pm. Party from 10pm
‘Ganz Grosses Kino’ is a common expression in German slang – a description of any dramatic event, on or off the screen, often used ironically as a mockery of the theater of daily life. It is also an exhibition of art from elsewhere, about otherness, on the move to somewhere else. ‘Ganz Grosses Kino’ is a response to living in an age of displacement and distraction in a city perpetually rebuilding itself, ever evolving into somewhere else.
Artists: Qiu Anxiong, Andreas Blank, Nicky Broekhuysen, Nezaket Ekici, Thomas Eller, Theo Eshetu, Amir Fattal, Annika Glass, Paula Godinez, Mariana Hahn, Constantin Hartenstein, Olaf Holzapfel, Jarik Jongman, Gülsün Karamustafa, Hannu Karjalainen, Ola Kolehmainen, Peter Krauskopf, David Krippendorff, Jan Kuck, Via Lewandowsky, Joep van Liefland, Fang Lu, Sarah Lüdemann, Bjorn Melhus, Tracey Moffatt, Timea Oravecz, Stefan Rinck, Maik Schierloh, Varvara Shavrova, Gary Schlingheider, David Szauder & Anna Reka Baktay, Mariana Vassileva, Alexandra Vogt, Wiebke Maria Wachmann, Clemens Wilhelm, Clara Winter

‘GANZ GROSSES KINO’
Cinema has always been a way of traveling without traveling – moving images move us. In an era of unprecedented mobility, life is becoming increasingly cinematic, as the fictions of the big screen blur into the realities of the daily news. Disaster scenarios with wars, bombs, disease, natural catastrophe, irrevocably rising sea levels. Is it Hollywood or CNN? Is art mirroring life or vise versa? [read more…]
While many struggle to survive, we, the fortunate, surf. We surf the web, the slipstream, the information age. We are constantly connected via smartphones iPads and apps; inundated with images, texts, and tweets; relentlessly bombarded with events, invitations, and offers. We live lives of perpetual motion from one piece of information to the next, from one opportunity to the next, and from one place to the next. Mobility – both geographical and social – not so long ago the privilege of the few – is now taken for granted as the entitlement of the majority. But as more and more people relocate, our open borders can sadly result in closing minds.
Throughout Europe, nationalism is on the rise; otherness exacerbated by openness. Borders increasingly open to the right few still snap shut to the many others. Historically having expelled millions, Berlin is still making up for it, reinventing itself as the go-to capital of the mobility age.
At the geographical center of Europe, Berlin acts as a vortex, sucking in the cool young things of art, fashion, media, music; professionals and tourists, migrant laborers and refugees. Berlin is a city of migrants where everyone is always from elsewhere, somewhere anywhere but here. It is a city of mobile people and moving images.
Berlin is a pit-stop in the race of upward mobility; a place in-between; an ideal stage for acting out the stories of otherness; a screen onto which to project our lives as we zoom past onto the next bright distraction in this era of impermanence.
‘Ganz Grosses Kino’ is an exhibition of art from elsewhere, about otherness, on the move to somewhere else. It is a co-curation by 3 Berlin-based curators – Rachel Rits-Volloch of MOMENTUM, Constanze Kleiner, and David Szauder, with contributions from ikonoTV, and students of Bjørn Melhus’s Virtual Realities class at Kassel University. It is a timeless exhibition of time-based art, placing the human dramas of the Old Masters alongside the digital dramas of our age.
From Caravaggio to the present, human dramas remain the same throughout the ages: war and disease, love and beauty, religious turmoil. These are the realities of life, the subject of art, and in this era of mass information and weapons of mass destruction, our global political context is the greatest Grosses Kino of all: Kino International!
Using the setting of this iconic movie theater to reflect on the theater of life and art in Berlin, ‘Ganz Grosses Kino’ is our response to living in an age of displacement and distraction in a city perpetually rebuilding itself, ever evolving into somewhere else.

Screening of the documentation of the live performance will be available for the duration of the exhibition.
SPECULAR brings together the recent work of a diverse and exciting group of international artists who explore and challenge our understanding of the visual and phenomenal world. The exhibition’s title, Specular is an ambiguous term simultaneously suggesting the power of enhanced vision, far-reaching observation, reflection and insight, and the very opposite of those faculties, a lack of clarity, obscurity and deflection; a world of illusion and shadows, tricks of the light. This ambiguity of meaning presents the possibility that a view of the world, which celebrates and accepts uncertainty and obscurity as the natural order might paradoxically present a clearer and truer image of reality than one which seeks an objective certainty. …read more…

Berlin and Detroit have quite a number of things in common. The most important one may be that both cities had large industries that have now mainly vanished. In Detroit, it was the automotive industry (Motown) with its long descent, in Berlin the loss of almost all the large companies by National Socialism, war and separation. This also created free spaces, emptiness and vacant areas, a special atmosphere of (supposed?) dreariness, as well as the option of invigorating and using the rooms. …read more…

In der Ausstellung „of opaque absences “ stellt Wiebke Maria Wachmann Fotografien aus, deren Motive sie in ihrem Atelier gefunden hat: abgebaute Kulissenteile ihrer raumfüllenden Installationen, Reststücke, Verworfenes, Unfertiges. Zufällig abgestelltes Material gesellt sich zu teil-inszeniertem und halb-abgebautem. Ausgeleuchtet entstehen ungewohnte Stillleben: ein Glasscherbenhaufen erscheint auf den ersten Blick wie ein aus der Romantik stammendes Bild einer Eisberglandschaft. In einer Mischung aus Authentizität und Künstlichkeit vermischen sich in gleißendem Licht Scherben und Staub mit den Scheinwelten der abgebauten
Kulissen. …read more…

The aim of FRAKTALE is to conduct an independent discourse about the basic elements of human existence.
FRAKTALE focuses aesthetic debate on time-spanning phenomena, such as cycles, evolution, metaphysics.
It is essential to separate the ephemeral from the immortal.

Rede von Dr. Peter Funken zur Ausstellungseröffnung
Die Künstlerin, die heute ihre neue, dreiteilige Arbeit in Ingolstadt vorstellt ist eigentlich eine Malerin – jedenfalls hat sie Malerei an der Berliner Universität der Künste studiert und sie legt auch Wert darauf, dass man ihre Arbeiten, die man – wie man hier sieht – durchaus auch als fotografische oder installative Werke bezeichnen könnte, im Sinne des Malens – aber mit anderen Mitteln und im Sinne einer Bildproduktion begreift. In ihrem Sinne begegnen uns in dieser Ausstellung drei Bilder, die ein einziges dreiteiliges Bild darstellen.

Presse:
Kieler Nachrichten | “Still Searching For A Position” by Peter Holm
(…) The works on show are hardly world-beating; the artists around 30 years old apparently have yet to find their way, are still searching – except for Wiebke Maria Wachmann: in her floating bed installation, her radical use of the colour white and ingenious artificial lighting cancel out spatial perspective, transposing it onto two dimensions, creating a strangely remote atmosphere somewhere between hospital sterility and heavenly weightlessness. Perfect workmanship and no compromises are the order of the day here. The installation is integrated seamlessly into the exhibition space; even the skirting boards of the Overbeck Pavilion had to be moved in order to heighten the tension between voyeuristic curiosity and personal concern.
“Young Berlin Artists At Overbeck”
“Whole Days Between” is the title of an installation by Wiebke Maria Wachmann. She has divided off one area of the pavilion and created a separate space. Through a small window, one looks into a white-painted room, in the middle of which a bed appears to float. But not only the bed is floating: the hazy lighting makes the entire space appear to be in motion. An inspiring optical experiment.

In ihrer Zusammenarbeit für die Galerie rekord erkunden Wachmann und Adam diefließenden Übergänge zwischen Raum und Raumillusion. Wiebke Maria Wachmann konstruiert in ihren Raum-im-Raum-Installationen eine eigene und eigenständige Realität, deren Inszenierung und Architektur eine neue Unschärferelation von Raum und Zeit erfahrbar machen. David Adam sucht in seinen Fotografien eine Balance zwischen dem Referenziellen des Objektes und dessen Fiktion im Bild. …read more…

COOL TIMES
Priska C. Juschka Fine Art | New York
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Exhibition: August 9 – August 31, 2002
Dan Asher, Nin Brudermann, Stuart Hawkins, Kyong Ho Ko, Daniel Mirer, Dean Monogenis, Massimo Vitali, Wiebke Maria Wachmann
The terrifying slickness of „Cool Times“, an exhibition of eight rising international artists at Priska Juschka Fine Art, rinses away the city grime but leaves the air crackling with electricity. Just like a massive cold front moving into the sultry city on a summer afternoon. Dan Asher’s photographic portraits of icebergs capture the beauty of these solemn white sentinels. Austrian Nin Brudermann also finds beauty in far-flung locales, but the subjects of her photos are sites of extreme human intervention. In a multimedia installation, Korean artist Ko Kyong-Ho distills a meditative moment into its most essential elements, while Stuart Hawkins, fresh from her solo exhibition at Priska Juschka Fine Art in May, presents photos from her „Rock, Scissors, Paper“ series.The empty corridors in Daniel Mirer’s photographs capture the cold poetry of functional interiors, and Dean Monogenis employs similar fragments of modern alienation in his colorful gouaches. Italian Massimo Vitali’s photographs, on the other hand, are jam-packed with people. As they swim and sun on Mediterranean beaches, these massive crowds seem oblivious to more than just the camera’s presence. Finally, German artist Wiebke Maria Wachmann, who exhibited at Priska Juschka last winter, unveils a new series of photographs that document her launch of a glowing moon replica over the Berlin night sky.

Press release by Craig Garrett:
Berlin artist Wiebke Maria Wachmann uses the title „Ganze Tage Dazwischen“ to describe one of her striking installations at Priska C. Juschka Fine Art. The word „dazwischen“ refers to an in-between state of consciousness, neither dreaming nor wakefulness. Events in this state feel too eerie to be real, too familiar for a dream. It is the uncanny sensation felt upon entering a spotless white room, flooded with a perfect, colorless light. … (read more)

Das Konzept: FRAKTALE II Mensch baut Mensch. Sechs zeitgenössische Künstler zeigen Fraktale. Der Mensch greift ins evolutionäre Geschehen bis in die feinsten Strukturen ein. Der Prozeß der Selbsterfindung hat sich radikal beschleunigt. Die Wahrnehmung der eigenen Position im Zeitfluß ist nur durch Konzentration auf Fraktale möglich. Die Information des Zeitlosen kann in jedem Bruchstück der Wirklichkeit sichtbar gemacht werden. read more…

Festival of Vision
Berlin in Hongkong
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Exhibition: November 4 – December 12, 2000
In Kooperation mit dem Goethe-Institut Hongkong beteiligte sich die aktions galerie im Jahr 2000 an dem „Festival of Vision“ in Hongkong.
In einem ersten Teil hatte das „Haus der Kulturen der Welt“ vom 29. Juli bis 10. September 2000 in einer Vielzahl von Veranstaltungen die Bandbreite zeitgenössischer Kunst aus Hongkong in Berlin gezeigt. Ab dem 4. November bis 12. Dezember 2000 wurde im Gegenzug unter der Federführung des Goethe-Instituts Hongkong im Rahmen des „Festivals of Vision“ aktuelle Berliner Kunst und Kultur in Hongkong vorgestellt. Unter anderen war die aktions galerie Berlin daran beteiligt.
„Das ‚Festival of Vision‘ war ein interkontinentaler Dialog zu Zukunftsvisionen urbaner Kultur. Das Festival verband zwei Städte, die sich in einer aufregenden Phase der Neuorientierung und des Umbruchs befinden. Die einstige Insellage sowie politische Umbrüche teilen Hongkong und Berlin ebenso wie die Auseinandersetzung mit Kapitalismus und Kommunismus / Sozialismus. Hongkong ist vor kurzem an China zurückgegeben worden. Man sprach auch dort von einer Wiedervereinigung. Ist Berlin die Brücke zwischen Ost und West, so will Hongkong das Eingangstor zu Ostasien sein. Kulturelle Vielfalt ist in beiden Städten die Grundlage für ein urbanes Lebensgefühl.
Das ‚Festival of Vision‘ beschränkte sich nicht auf die Präsentation der jeweils anderen Kunst und Kultur. Das Festival basierte auf einem zukunftsweisenden Konzept des internationalen Kulturaustausches, das den Dialog der Kulturen durch den Aufbau nachhaltiger Netzwerke vertiefen wollte. Das Programm wurde von zwei Institutionen in gleichberechtigter Kooperation konzipiert und organisiert: Dem Hong Kong Institute of Contemporary Culture und dem Haus der Kulturen der Welt. Es zielte nicht nur auf die Intensivierung der kulturellen Kontakte, sondern bot Impulse zur Vernetzung von Kultur und Wirtschaft der beiden Städte.“ (Haus der Kulturen der Welt)

Reconstruction of a birch-forest [Room installation: 25 sqm | 50 birch trees, painted white | Fluorescent light]
For the exhibition „present representation“ Wiebke Maria Wachmann reconstsructed a forest – a birch forest – as an apparently ideal place. Everything is white and submerged in a very bright, diffuse light. The birch trees appear to grow through the ceiling and walls. Because of the lighting, the shadows are very vague, resulting in a peculiar, unreal atmosphere; the concrete physical space is lost in the diffuse light and the dissolving shadows.

Das 4. Festival junger experimenteller Kunst „… und ab die Post 2000!“ fand vom 12. Mai bis zum 12. Juni statt. Mehr als 100 Bildende und Darstellende Künstler(-gruppen) verschiedener Nationalitäten, die in Berlin leben, stellten auf 2.000 Quadratmetern Ausstellungsfläche ihre Exponate und Darbietungen zum letzten Mal in den alten Gemäuern des ehemaligen Postfuhramts in der Oranienburger Straße vor. Neben der Präsentation in Berlin produzierter Kunst war ein weiteres Ziel, die Entwicklungen der jungen und experimentellen Kunst in anderen europäischen und außereuropäischen Metropolen zu zeigen. Beim diesjährigen Festival waren Künstlerinnen und Künstler aus Budapest und Hong Kong mit ihren Arbeiten vertreten. Neu im Programm waren wöchentliche Künstlergespräche mit prominenten Kunst- und Kulturwissenschaftlern.
Zur Bedeutung des Postfuhramtes für die Kunstszene in Berlin schrieb der künstlerische Leiter Johann Nowak im Programmheft:
„Im Rausch der Gentrifizierung Berlins nimmt das alte Postfuhramt an der Oranienburger Straße einen Sonderstatus ein. Ausstellungen, wie das seit vier Jahren stattfindende Festival ‚…und ab die Post!’ und die Berlin Biennale etablierten den historischen Ort zu einem Ausstellungsraum junger experimenteller Kunst, der internationale Aufmerksamkeit erregt. Die Eigenheit, die das Postfuhramt als Kunstraum entwickelt hat, ist auf das uneingeschränkte Engagement Kunst- und Kulturschaffender, sowie die Initiative öffentlicher und privater Sponsoren zurückzuführen, die die Verantwortung und das Potential der Kunst und des Ortes aktiv unterstützten. Im Kontext derzeitiger kulturpolitischer Entwicklungen benötigt der Erhalt des Postfuhramtes als Forum aktueller Kunst, sowohl die öffentliche Diskussion, als auch gesellschaftliches Engagement.“

Das 3. Festival junger experimenteller Kunst „… und ab die Post 1999!“ fand vom 30. April bis 16. Mai ebenfalls im historischen Postfuhramt in der Oranienburger Straße in Berlin-Mitte statt. Über 100 bildende und darstellende Künstler waren mit ihren Werken vertreten: Malerei, Installationen, Konzerte, Performances, Theater- und Tanzaufführungen.
Zur Bedeutung dieses Festivals für die internationale Kunstszene schrieb der künstlerische Leiter Johann Nowak im Editorial des Ausstellungskatalogs:
„Berlin ist gegenwärtig ein exorbitantes Labor zwischen den Welten und Stühlen. In diesem Spannungsfeld und dem vielfach undefinierten und anfangs weitgehend unreglementierten Raum findet die internationale experimentelle Kunst ihre Entfaltungsmöglichkeiten und allgemeine Beachtung. Vorrangiges Ziel des Festivals ist es, Berliner Künstlern ein Forum zu geben. Um darüber hinaus die Entwicklungen der jungen experimentellen Kunst in anderen europäischen und außereuropäischen Metropolen zu zeigen sind in diesem Jahr Künstler aus Jakarta und Kiew vertreten.
‚…und ab die Post!‘ versteht sich als genreübergreifender Seismograph der Szene: Malerei, Installationen, Foto, Video, Performance, Tanz, Film, Musik und Theater treffen aufeinander und durchdringen sich, neue Verbindungen werden geschaffen. Die junge Kunst bezieht die erlebte Erfahrung ein und erfüllt gleichzeitig das klassische Bedürfnis nach Tiefe und Reflexion. Manches in ihr scheint sich einzufügen in die Tradition von Fluxus über PopArt bis zur Postmoderne, aber was sich wirklich abzeichnet, ist eine gelebte Verbindung von Sinn und Sinnlichkeit.“
