Three cultural institutions from two countries have joined forces to continue the artistic dialogue with each other that already began in Berlin in 2022 with IRRITATION – Preview and will be continued in Schaffhausen in June 2023.
Project author and initiator is Simone Kornfeld, who works both in Switzerland and Berlin.
Opening of the second stage
Exhibition IRRITATION: The Art of Getting Lost
3.6.-17.7.2023
VEBIKUS Kunsthalle Schaffhausen, Switzerland
In October 2023, the 3rd stage will take place again at the VEREIN BERLINER KÜNSTLER gallery in Berlin.
We live in a time of open developments, uncertainty and uncertain situations:
Identity, politics, human rights, gender, belonging, energy, environment, power….
How do we deal with the associated feelings, longings, memories, losses and opportunities?
What do we lose and what do we gain?
What can we control, how much are we controlled?
What happens when we find, are found or decide to stay lost?
The exhibition at VEBIKUS Kunsthalle Schaffhausen shows how twenty women artists respond to the issues that concern them most. They do so with subtle, sometimes subversive gestures, with open threats, with the questioning of reality and with a will to rebuild and reconstruct that speaks of the hope to forget the existing and dream of the new.
The vernissage will take place on Saturday, 3.6.2023 at 4 pm.
In this exhibition Maria Korporal shows her new installation QAT QUBE – Is Schrödinger’s Cat Dead or Alive?.
