The gallery is pleased to present the first solo exhibition in Canada and second in North America of work by the famed German photographer, Claudia Fährenkemper (b. Castrop-Rauxel, Germany, 1959).
For more than thirty years, Fährenkemper has used photography to explore the strange beauty of man-made or natural objects by isolating them in some way from their environment. She studied under Bernd and Hilla Becher at the prestigious Kunstakademie Düsseldorf from 1989 until 1995 and has since produced series in landscape, machinery, photomicroscopy, and most recently, formal portraits of 15th to 19th Century suits of armour.
This exhibition offers a survey of her practice that displays her talents in many genres. Illustrating her central thesis of using photography to transform reality and produce photographic images that visualize phenomena to enable comparative vision, Fährenkemper invites the observer to compare the information conveyed by her photographs with their own visible or remembered reality.

Art production out of Eastern Europe had its moment after the fall of the Berlin Wall, when Western audiences flocked to Prague and other gateway points of the former Soviet Empire, hoping to experience the world behind the Iron Curtain before its inevitable adaption to the prevailing political system. Art from the region was shown widely at international exhibitions, providing a breath of fresh air while being displayed as newly discovered and captured trophies.
Now, thirty years later, contemporary art practices originating in the former East are gaining new confidence and empowerment. Middle European Mysticism proposes a comparison between the work of selected Slovak and Czech artists from different generations, with a focus on the element of mysticism permeating these artists’ works, in media ranging from painting and drawing to photography, sculpture and video.

.informality is proud to present The Curious Eye Never Runs Dry by Paris based, Australian artist, Anthony White. The artist’s first solo show in the UK. The exhibition comprises recent work reviewing ideas about civil disobedience and its correlation to contemporary late capitalism. In the exhibition, Anthony White revisits themes of involuntary detention, injustice, migration, and reflects upon the effects of a Western capitalist civilisation in our modern environment.
In his latest work White combines important forms of analogue communication including posters of advertising and musical acts from the Paris metro. Drawing from the urban cultural history of Paris, the artist uses these reversed metro 'affiches' to build the image, tearing, re-cropping and utilising painterly interventions acting as a form of dissent.
The Curious Eye Never Runs Dry utilises materials tagged and altered by anonymous authors which symbolising collectivity in the community and highlights the increased need for collective types of communication, reinforcing the fact that we are interdependent upon one another.

'Es geht mir immer um Transparenz und Schichtung, d.h. um den Raum. Meine Arbeiten sind Raumarbeiten'.
Der bekannte Bonner Künstler, 1955 geboren, ist mit seinem Werk in vielen Museen des In-und Auslands vertreten. So auch - was unsere Region betrifft - im Museum Pfalzgalerie Kaiserslautern, der Kunsthalle Mannheim, dem Wilhelm-Hack-Museum Ludwigshafen, dem Saarlandmuseum Saarbrücken.
Am Samstag, 1.9. kommt Werner Haypeter zur Eröffnung seiner Ausstellung um 18 Uhr in die Galerie Wack.
Dort ist der aktuelle Stand seines Schaffens zu sehen in Form von neuen Papierarbeiten und Objekten. Auch seine Vorliebe für Werkstoffe unsrer Zeit aus dem industriellen Bereich - etwa Kunststoffe wie Epoxidharz oder PVC - wird deutlich.
Am Eröffnungsabend spricht Michael Hübl (Karlsruhe) zur Einführung.

The installation 'Birdcage 2017' takes us back to the notion of habitable architecture, but with the focus on recreating an environment of confinement. With her house/cage, Choi invites the spectators to experience the feeling of finding themselves in a small and suffocating space. To complete the effect, this house allows us to see in between its slits, only partially covering what is happening on both sides, so that the people inside can see those who remain outside and vice versa.
Extreme loneliness and impersonal communications of contemporary life find their metaphorical version in this piece. Choi´s fragile construction of strings is a type of perversion of space, of society and of communication. The metaphor of the cage, more than reminding us of the cruelty of capturing a bird for our viewing pleasure, mocks human beings that shut themselves away from everyone else. It is a metaphor of our reality.

The artist, born 1945 in The Hague, is present throughout the Netherlands with breathtaking large scale sculpture.
The exhibition shows work of different periods and provides an impressive insight into the artist's work.
His collages as well as his sculptures are full of tension and vitality. It is a dialogue between movement and rest, weight and lightness, volume and space. The playfully arranged constructive elements don't seem to follow a precise plan. The color of the surface is steel or bronze of the original material but sometimes as well colorful and bright.

This year’s 13th International Painting Symposium 'Mark Rothko 2017' taking place in Daugavpils, Latvia, was attended by 10 artists from 10 different countries of the world. From 98 artists’ applications, this year’s participants of the symposium were chosen by a competent international jury.
This unique structured residency at the Mark Rothko Art Centre lets artists participate in a transcultural environment to critically engage with ideas central to the Abstract Expressionist visual arts practice. The symposium provides a space to explore and debate the role and purposes of contemporary art. Participants of the exhibition: Edda Jachens (Germany), Graham Fletcher (New Zealand), Anthony White (Australia / France), Katarina Balunova (Slovakia), Evrim Özeskici (Turkey), Bernier Carol (Canada), Teona Chanishvili (Georgia), Erling Stuart Rohde (Norway), Ramūnas Čeponis (Lithuania), Madara Neikena (Latvia).
Anthony White's work considers collision points, shifts and ruptures at the site of geopolitical and cultural boundaries, particularly in relation to global immigration crises; echoing Edward Said's identification of 'the inextricable links' between Modernism, war and immigration. White's works are often characterized by an awareness of surface and a preoccupation with physicality and the found object.
A dominant area of research in his work has been concerned with the phenomenon of Empires: How do empires construct narratives to promote and propagate ideology?

Jacques Breuer ist zur Eröffnung anwesend.
Zur Einführung spricht Dr. Britta E. Buhlmann, Direktorin des Museum Pfalzgalerie Kaiserslautern.
1893 in Bonn geboren und 1975 dort verstorben, hat Breuer in seinem Leben verschiedene Schaffensphasen durchlaufen. Von gegenständlichen Arbeiten der Neuen Sachlichkeit bis zur virtuellen Kinetik in den 70er Jahren entwickelte sich sein Werk trotz einer Biographie, die ihm weder Kriegsjahre in Russland noch Emigration, weder Verfolgung noch Internierung ersparte.
Ab 1945 arbeitete Breuer zunächst in Paris, dann abwechselnd in Paris und Bonn. Mit Kollegen wie Herbin, Kupka, Gleizes befreundet, engagierte er sich in der Pariser Gruppe Mesure und im Vorstand des Salon des Réalités Nouvelles.
Poesie und Geometrie, Rhythmus und lyrische Farbigkeit verbinden sich im Werk des bedeutenden Künstlers, wie die ausgestellten Gouachen, Zeichnungen, Collagen und Handdrucke, zum Teil aus den 50er und 60er Jahren und erstmals ausgestellt, erkennen lassen.

Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac is pleased to announce an exhibition in the Paris Marais gallery featuring the most important sculpture by Marcel Duchamp to be on the market for many years. The Porte-bouteilles (Bottle Rack), dated 1959, is considered one of the most influential sculptures from the 20 century.
The exhibition, October 2016 – January 14, 2017, is curated around this seminal work, a year which also commemorates the 100 anniversary of the term readymade, that Duchamp first coined in 1916 in a letter to his sister Suzanne.
The exhibition features Duchamp’s Porte-bouteilles from 1959, the year Robert Rauschenberg bought it ('Art and the Found Object', Time-Life Building, New York) for his personal collection – where it remained until it was passed on to the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation.
Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac has been chosen by the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation to place the sculpture in a public institution allowing for ongoing public viewing and scholarship.
Together with the Porte-bouteilles the exhibition will show a selection of drawings by Marcel Duchamp as well as other works that relate directly to the object.
A fully illustrated catalog of the exhibition will be published with newly commissioned texts by Cecile Debray, curator at the Musée national d’art moderne/Centre Pompidou, Paris, and Paul B. Franklin, specialist on Marcel Duchamp and editor in chief of Étant donné Marcel Duchamp.
