Réunis à l’initiative de la commissaire Blair Taylor, les artistes Dash Snow, Terence Koh, Carol Bove et Andrew Lord seront à l’affiche de Story Without A Name du 20 juin au 15 août 2009 dans l’antenne berlinoise de la célèbre galerie Peres Project.

Au programme : des collages et un film de Dash Snow et des sculptures des trois autres artistes. L’inauguration du show aura lieu le samedi 20 juin à partir de 19 heures.

Un rendez-vous à ajouter à votre liste de visites de la capitale allemande si vous y passez durant l’été.

D’après la commissaire de l’exposition :
"At the onset of the Great Depression in the 1930s, Joseph Cornell took work designing textiles and selling appliances door-to-door to support his family and his habit of collecting ephemera with which to make artwork. He later referred to this period as "a golden age – one of white magic without which I don’t know where I would be today." It was during this time that Cornell created a series of collages titled "Story without a Name – for Max Ernst," from which the present exhibition takes its name and mission.

(...) Here, bracketed by disquieting figurative collage and film by Dash Snow, sculptures by Andrew Lord, Carol Bove and Terence Koh anthropomorphize to resemble an eerie gathering (social, Neopagan, alien or otherwise) at the center of the gallery space. The material range – from Super 8 film to ceramics to painted bronze to peacock feathers – provokes a sensual suspension as that between synapses, a realm where dreamscape and corporeality fold together."
