Attending

The setting of a moment in the scene is the basic idea in the work of the Dutch artist Witte Wartena to "attending", being present or being present. The exhibition is recorded as a situation. At the center of the drawings are vernissages and people to be identified by the title of the work and the name register. Witte Wartena's works invite you to reflect on exhibitions. When was a room designed for whom? Which people are in it, who uses it? What distinguishes an exhibition venue, the staging of space?

The catalog shows a section of the Berlin gallery and art scene.

47 weeks of exhibitions in 47 drawings from the exhibition openings.

The titles of the drawings correspond to the exhibition titles.
