Anna Bogouchevskaia - Shouldn't be Gone
Anna Bogouchevskaia (b. Moscow, 1966; lives and works in Berlin) sees her work in sculpture as a geopolitical engagement with concerns on the intersection between figuration and abstraction. Macroscopic aluminum drops, bizarre bronze flowers, fog and snow made of silver-the artist, a committed environmentalist, has created a peculiar and fascinating world of evanescent natural phenomena. Focusing on two molecules-carbon dioxide and water-in their various states of aggregation, she draws attention to the threats posed by climate change. The publication "Shouldn't be gone" presents Bogouchevskaia's most recent works since 2019: an urgent message of warning from an artist whose sculptural oeuvre even today has the air of a monument to a world in demise.
Hans Aichinger
The oeuvre of the Leipzig-based artist Hans Aichinger (1959) is dedicated to the representational. Figural compositions with a great density of content that can be ascribed to the New Leipzig School are executed in a hyper-realistic manner of painting and virtuoso artistic technique.
Daniel Lie
- From the series Künstlerhaus Bethanien - Offers a platform for emerging young artists A central pillar of Daniel Lie's artistic practice is time - ranging from age-old memories to the beginning of the world, from the life span of a human being to the geological time of the elements. Lie's art explores concepts such as life, death, and decay, as well as biographical relationships and heritage, with an approach that centers around personal memories, family stories, cultural objects, and natural products that survive for a long time and are linked to memories of the past. Taking a lifetime as a comparative measure, the works are inspired by developmental processes and the transition from one...

SEO
A former pupil of Georg Baselitz, Korean artist SEO was first recognized for her landscapes and figurative work, in which she made innovative use of colored rice paper as an unusual collage medium. Most recently, her works have been solicited for the Venice Biennale and are also on display at the Museum of Modern Art and the Guggenheim. SEO: Personal Cosmos provides an illustrated overview of her body of work as well as her artistic and technical development to date. Starting with SEO's early collages, including a successful series on war and global environmental destruction, the book then considers her later abstract work that takes her art to a new level, including groundbreaking installations inspired by physics and energy. SEO has earned international critical acclaim for her thought-provoking and creatively brilliant explorations of the forces of nature, and this book brings her work deservedly to the forefront.
Prajakta Potnis - Store in a cool and dry place
Mit dem Ziel, den interkulturellen Dialog voranzutreiben, realisiert die KfW Stiftung in Kooperation mit dem Künstlerhaus Bethanien ein Atelierprogramm, das Nachwuchskünstlern aus Lateinamerika, Afrika und Asien einen zwölfmonatigen Aufenthalt in Berlin ermöglicht. Die von Nicola Müllerschön und Christoph Tannert herausgegebene monografische Reihe dokumentiert das künstlerische Schaffen der Stipendiaten.0Die aktuelle Publikation gibt einen Überblick über die Arbeiten der 1980 geborenen indischen Künstlerin Prajakta Potnis. In Skulpturen, Installationen, Gemälden und Zeichnungen beschäftigt sich die in Mumbai lebende Potnis mit dem Verhältnis von Innen und Außen, Privatsphäre und Öffentlichkeit. Dabei spielt die Beschaffenheit von Oberflächen eine große Rolle. Fragil, verletzlich und wandelbar stellt sie Wände, Membranen und letztlich auch die menschliche Haut ins Zentrum ihres Schaffens.0.
Parallel Public
How East German artists made their country’s experimental art scene a form of (counter) public life. Experimental artists in the final years of the German Democratic Republic did not practice their art in the shadows, on the margins, hiding away from the Stasi’s prying eyes. In fact, as Sara Blaylock shows, many cultivated a critical influence over the very bureaucracies meant to keep them in line, undermining state authority through forthright rather than covert projects. In Parallel Public, Blaylock describes how some East German artists made their country’s experimental art scene a form of (counter) public life, creating an alternative to the crumbling collective underpinnings of th...
Monografie
Die koreanische Künstlerin SEO hat in den letzten Jahren eine Blitzkarriere auf dem internationalen Kunstmarkt gestartet. Die in Berlin lebende Künstlerin wird weltweit ausgestellt und gesammelt, unter anderem vom Museum of Modern Art in New York, das neun ihrer Werke erwarb. Die einstige Meisterschülerin von Georg Baselitz verbindet in ihren Bildern, die überwiegend Landschaften und menschliche Körper zeigen, asiatische und europäische Elemente. Ihre Arbeiten entstehen in einem ungewöhnlichen Malprozess: Tausende Papierstreifen, bestehend aus einem speziellen, semidurchscheinenden Papier, werden entlang einer "Linie" collageähnlich auf der Leinwand arrangiert, bemalt, überklebt und erneut bemalt. Dabei schimmert die darunter liegende Schicht durch. Es entstehen faszinierende Bilder mit einer besonderen Struktur und Tiefe, die das Anliegen der Künstlerin widerspiegelt "das Wesen der Dinge abzubilden und nicht das Augenscheinliche".
