Famous # 10, Nobody is Famous in New York

Famous # 10, Nobody is Famous in New York

The primier concept of Famous was that of an entirely white magazine, empty, devoid of any visual representation. Only names, of real or virtual “anti-contributors”, would have come to the light of such an immaculate matter. Thereafter, Famous became a polymorphous magazine, with fluctuation directive lines and variable contents. Dissolving subjective identities on behalf of the purpose, Famous can also take the decision to use star system’s codes in order to have diverse individualities emerge. Famous wants to be theoretical and practical, intimate and mundane.

“Drinnen & Draussen”

a group exhibition with:
Alejandro Almanza Pereda, Lucy Coggle, Jérémie Gindre, Petrit Halilaj, Karin Hueber, Hannah James, Heike Kabisch, Valerie Krause, Roseline Rannoch, Heiko Räpple, Vanessa Safavi, Carla Scott Fullerton, John Spiteri, Philippe van Wolputte.

Opening Reception: Saturday, June 26, 2010
19.00 – 22.00

26 June – 26 August, 2010

Chert / Motto
Skalitzerstr. 68
10997 Berlin
www.chert-berlin.com
www.mottodistribution.com

The show invites 14 artists from various countries including Germany, Australia, Belgium, Switzerland, Great Britain, Mexico and Kosovo. The different works are situated both inside the gallery space and outside of it, using part of the courtyard where Chert and Motto are located. In this way, the attention is moving between the ideas of precariousness and delicacy, creating a different approach to the public in respect of the artwork, focusing on the differences between a traditional gallery context and an extemporaneous placement.
