In Fiona Ackerman's fourth solo exhibition at the gallery, we are showing abstract, colorful works that once again reveal the playful and expressive side of the Canadian artist. The artist is also a musician, so it is no coincidence that the exhibition is entitled “I am so green”, a tribute to the Cologne krautrock band “CAN”. We are particularly excited about her design for our stand at Paper Positions Berlin, which will take place at the same time.

Surrealism is back! Following on from our major themed exhibition “real surreal hyperreal” five years ago, we are showing a new selection of works that we associate with this art movement, which has now become topical again.

The artist Reiner Zitta, born in Buchelsdorf/Czech Republic in 1944, is a universal artist in the spirit of Joseph Beuys. He has lived and worked in an old Franconian mill since 1978. He is a member of the local artist group Borgo-Ensemble. He recycles poetic and fetish-like image objects from discarded and found objects. In his drawings he works delicately and in a fairytale-like way. We show a tiny selection from his unmanageable, overcrowded Chambers of Wonder.

After completing her master's degree in fine arts in Dublin in 2011, Tinka Bechert, born in Berlin in 1975, lives and works in Berlin and Sligo. She has exhibited widely internationally (including Berlin, Dublin, New York), and her work is represented in public and private collections worldwide. In this exhibition we show works from her large museum exhibition "Paintings and Objects" (Royal Hibernian Academy of Arts, Dublin, 2024) and selected works from her Berlin-studio.

Natascha Mann belongs to a generation of artists whose artistic and professional résumés are inextricably linked to their personal way of life and experience. Her sheer overwhelming creativity draws from the rich source of her experience on trips and residences in near and far countries, as well as her experience with the medium of painting itself and the virtuoso mastery of all its techniques in reverse glass painting, etching, woodcut etc. leads her to new shores time and time again. To date this has earned her many admirers nationally and internationally.

This exhibition shows that still life is far from being consigned to the dustbin of art history. The exhibiting artists each have their own approach to the genre and convince us that still lifes are still very much alive today.

After the wonderful concert "O Dolorosa Sorte" last year we are happy to invite to a new concert:

Memory Eternal is an evening exploring masterpieces from Eastern Europe -
Sergei Prokofiev,  Anton Arensky, Alfred Schnittke and Bulgarian Folk Music
 

Boats, especially boats of fools, are among the artist's leitmotifs. This is not surprising, as he can use them to display the themes that occupy him throughout his life: Travel and departure to other worlds, and man's being at the mercy of hostile elements. This existential being-thrown-into-the-world and the resulting insecurity are Hiltner's central themes, as well as the short-sighted and often absurd handling of this situation, which he observes in himself and his fellow travelers. We look forward to a variety of often very large-scale paintings and drawings from different creative periods and techniques, including brand new works.

We are very pleased to invite you to the second solo exhibition of the renowned artist Adebayo Bolaji on the occasion of the reopening of the newly remodeled gallery. In this exhibition, Bolaji, who lives in London and has Nigerian roots, takes the protest action of young Nigerians against police arbitrariness as an occasion to reflect on the power of the voice: The exhibition will take place in both gallery spaces, the artist will be present at the opening.

Parallel to Ernst Weil's large retrospective exhibition at the Museum Giersch in his home town of Frankfurt a. Main, we are showing selected drawings from the 1950s and prints from the 1970s from the estate of this important German postwar painter. Works by Ernst Weil will also be on show at Paper Positions, Berlin, alongside works by Gregor Hiltner and Howard Sherman.

"Labyrinth" refers to a system of lines or paths, which, due to numerous changes in direction, creates a puzzle. The labyrinthine nature of works of art is exactly what makes many an art viewer ponder where to start his or her contemplation and where to end it. Who could be better in shedding light on the labyrinthine nature of artistic work than the artist and curator Gregor Hiltner, who will introduce the exhibition with a short lecture at 4:30 pm.

Where do you want to enter or dive in? Looking at Virginia Glasmacher's paintings, one suddenly understands very clearly the meaning of the word "color space". Her color landscapes are deep and complex, each a unique system of color and form that the viewer is happy to be captivated by. We are looking forward to going for a walk in these landscapes together with the artist.Virginia Glasmacher was born in Richmond, Virginia, studied painting and semiotics and now lives and works in Wetzlar. 

The son of singer, musician, artist and author Kevin Coyne, and a musician himself from the age of 14, Robert has played with the Scientists, Silver Chapter, Venus Ray, The Barracudas, Amy Rigby, Eric Burdon, Sky Saxon, Jon Langford and Chris Wilson, among many others. Robert and Werner will also perform some of Kevin Coyne´s songs.
 

The internationally renowned artist Kevin Coyne (born in Derby in 1944, died in Nuremberg in 2004) is a recognized figure as a rock poet. But he was also very creative as a visual artist and author until his death. Kevin Coyne studied graphics and painting at Derby College of Art. We show a selection of his work. The journalist and author Steffen Radlmayer guides us through Coyne's life and the exhibition in his brilliant monograph "The Crazy World of Kevin Coyne​".

In her project of special artist portraits, based on Foucault's concept of heterotopia, the Canadian artist Fiona Ackerman visited the studio of the artist Friedrich Meckseper, who died in 2019. This resulted in a series of clever and profound portraits and studio studies that characterize the artist as an idiosyncratic and technology-loving dreamer and collector. We show Ackerman´s paintings together with some masterful works by Friedrich Mecksepeper.

In this large group exhibition we celebrate the summer. The exhibited works cover a wide range of artistic styles reaching from the material-loaded, almost physical paintings by Natascha Mann and Howard Sherman to the precisely composed abstract works on paper by the American artist Juan Logan, from the playful experimental compositions by the Canadian artist Fiona Ackerman up to the mythological stories by Uwe Bremer-just to name a few.

Howard Sherman is one of the best-known artists in Texas, where he received his Master of Fine Arts from the University of North Texas in 2006. Sherman's canvases bear traces of his background as a cartoonist and combine the raw power of aggressive brushstrokes with a playful sense of humour. We are delighted to welcome him to the gallery to his first exhibition in Europe at GALERIE KREMERS.

Juan Logan, born in Nashville, Tennessee in 1946, lives and works in Belmont, NC. His works, originally related to American history and the connections between race and power, illustrate universal, mostly sorrowful events in history shared by many people today. His mostly abstract paintings are ciphers for memories that are in danger of being forgotten. In the USA, Juan Logan's works are part of numerous collections and can be seen in many museums.

In the 80's and 90's Bathemes was the award-winning star of the Berlin jazz scene. At the end of the 90's he stopped playing music, left the stage, sold his saxophone and embarked on a 20-year metamorphosis. He recently emerged from the cocoon and returned to his first love, the saxophone. This is the second concert together with the Milan pianist Davide Incorvaia at the gallery.

Karl Kunz was born in Augsburg in 1905, Ernst Weil in Frankfurt am Main in 1919. Kunz worked as a freelance painter in Berlin from 1927 before he was banned from painting in 1933 as a "degenerate artist". Due to his long service in the war, Weil was late in starting his studies at the newly opened academy in Munich. Both painters clearly belong to classical modernism and have consistently pursued their path. An exciting dialogue.

One could speak of a renaissance of romanticism. Dark forests, barren and deserted landscapes are the favorite motifs of the Romantics, their settings are often cemeteries and ruins, the atmosphere depicted is magical, often eerie. The painters gathered in this group exhibition share many of these preferences. 

Improvisation concert with Johannes Ammon (violin and steal cello) and Paul Stouthamer (cello). Their collaboration started in 1981, where they improvised on the streets of Boston. To carry on and on occasion of the exhibition "Hokuspokus - the Artist as Shaman" Paul Stouthamer travelled with his cello from Barcelona to Berlin. Classical violin and Cello are complemented by the archaic steal cello.

Konrad Kinard is originally from Texas and is a well-known figure in the independent music scene not only in New York and London, but also in Berlin, where he founded the club "Sexiland" on Rosenthaler Strasse."War is Family" is a special, autobiographical performance, where he conjures up the atmosphere he experienced as an adolescent during the Cold War in Texas. This scenario is complemented by an anthemic description of Berlin, where his eyes are opened to historical and political reality.

With Adebayo Bolaji, Uwe Bremer, Juan Logan, Gregor Hiltner, Natascha Mann, Jude Griebel, Christian Rösner, Taylor A. White, Reiner Zitta, Adolfo Schlosser, Joseph Beuys, Paul Schwietzke, Alan Neider. Artists are shamans: they transform dead matter into living matter, everyday objects into ritual objects and thus “cure” their culture. In this exhibition international artists are represented with works of art that are particularly magically charged.

It is no secret that many painters love music. The titles of paintings are often linked to the title of songs. We show the jazz lover Ernst Weil, the salsa dancer and friend of Latin American music Gregor Hiltner, the New York artist Robert Szot, who obviously likes Bob Dylan, the painter and dancer Natascha Mann, the universal artist Reiner Zitta with "La Paloma", the lover of Improvisation Paul Schwietzke and painter and theatre director Adébayo Bolaji with "Small Faces".

Paradises exist. There are artificially created places, for example zoos or gardens, which remind Homo Sapiens of where he actually came from. Canadian artist´s Erik Nieminen's painting practice is an exploration of possible space. It shows us the manifold worlds open to us when we withdraw from the gravity of the real (everyday) world.

In her third solo exhibition at GALERIE KREMERS, Fiona Ackerman presents a series of images made during the COVID-19 lockdown exploring Metamorphosis. A series of new paintings explore three thematic areas: the works of Sibylla Maria Merian treating the metamorphosis of butterflies; Schrödinger's Cat, a 1935 thought experiment by Erwin Schrödinger; and the overnight transformation of an office worker into a bug in Franz Kafka's 1915 novella The Metamorphosis. 

In this exhibition we present romantic or humorous, poetic or drastically expressive masterpieces of printmaking. There are only a handpicked number of artists who handle printmaking techniques in this mastery and only a few viewers know how much work and skill there is behind these graphic sheets, extended until 30.03.21. Virtual tour: https://galerie-kremers.de/3-d-touren/
