Realities Left Vacant
Realities Left Vacant presents works by 11 international artists awarded the visual arts work stipend of the Berlin Senate: Nadja Abt, Tekla Aslanishvili, Marianna Christofides, Silvina Der Meguerditchian, Christian Diaz Orejarena, Sofia Duchovny, Ahu Dural, Cornelia Herfurtner, Göksu Kunak, Isaiah Lopaz, Alina Schmuch.
Like the exhibition of the same name, the catalog brings together works that explore the infrastructures of seeing and experiencing. They critically examine habits of seeing that shape our perception, as well as material and immaterial structures that play host to both coexistence and conflict. For the artists of Realities Left Vacant, these conditions are always politically informed.
The publication can be purchased at local bookshops, via the website of Buchhandlung Walther König, and at Neuer Berliner Kunstverein. Members of Neuer Berliner Kunstverein can buy the book at n.b.k. for the special price of 15.00 Euro.
