Public Relations

Exhibition title: Public Relations Venue: STUDIO PERAGINE, Versmannstraße 16, 20457 Hamburg, Germany Date: September 5–September 26, 2021 Photography: Helge Mundt / all images copyright and courtesy of the artists Public Relations is the first group show to take place at STUDIO PERAGINE in HafenCity’s Baakenhafen. Artistic positions from Athens, Berlin, Copenhagen, Maastricht, Munich and Hamburg gather to form relations to each other in connection with the question what makes public encounters currently possible. They will show remnants of urban spaces in the shape of pigeons and other birds, abandoned or unfinished architectures, protective textiles, a moment of togetherness on a doorstep during an icy winter day… Through painting, drawing, collage, sculpture and video, the artists open diverse perspectives on Public Relations. authors: Alice Peragine, Angela Stiegler, Samuel Fischer-Glaser LIST OF WORKS Johanna Bruckner Hypermorphismen, #1-5 silicone objects, ca. 40 x 30 x 10 cm, 2021 Crushpad Climax #3 channel 3 of a 3-channel-video installation, HD/4K Video, 2021 Espen Melin Hagedorn The sound of a train riding over the bridge, and from across the river; beeping of machines plaster, jute, steel, found organic material, Dimensions variable, 2020 Thema für Therapie acrylic and gouache on paper, 29,5 cm x 20,5 cm, 2021 Samuel Fischer-Glaser Foundation (Bubble Boys) I – IV acrylic on paper, 30 x 42 cm, 2019 Laura Franzmann Crawling (confusing what is real), quilted PE-fabric, padding, 60 x 170 cm, 2017 Source of Milk and Vital Forces (Gimbutas Dream), coloured pencil on paper, natural cardboard, wood, 42 x 52 cm, 2021 Swanwoman lebengebendes Wasser (Gimbutas Dream), coloured pencil on paper, natural cardboard, wood, 42 x 52 cm, 2021 Ylena Katkova Bird without wings kinetic objects (battery powered), plastic, wire, circuit board, 41 x 17 x 6 cm, 2021 Boat kinetic objects (battery powered), plastic, wire, circuit board, 26 x 14 x 10 cm, 2021 Ida Lennartsson Avatar Blues (Homing P.) grass, cigarette stump, candy wrapper, bird’s claw (wax), 35 x 20 x 16 cm, 2019 The Garden of Decay (Vogelbad) C-Print, Edition of 4, 16,5 x 25 cm, 2021 + custom-made sculpture Burial by air video 16:9, 7 min, loop, 2011 Edition 3 + 2 AP Isamu Marsden Split Log Vases white porcelain, black pigmented porcelain, iron oxide pigmented porcelain, high fired at 1240 degrees, 2021 Alice Peragine Soft Roader car tarpaulin for SUV from the performance, painter's fleece, airbag, truck tarpaulin (interior), sleeping mat film, silk, linen, velvet, imitation leather, imitation asphalt, kinesio tape , ca. 390 x 600 x 240 cm, 2021 Hartes Pflaster – weicher Asphalt Collage I – V, 20 x 30 cm, 2021 Im fragilen Wald der Zwischenzeit Collage, 50 x 55 cm, 2021 Bearing Witness to Pavement Collage, 85 x 120 cm, 2021 Angela Stiegler Tischdecken I watercolor on inkjet print, 21 x 30 cm, 2020 Tischdecken II Watercolor on inkjet print, 21 x 30 cm, 2020 Angela Stiegler and Yulia Lokshina A portrait of an artist as an ageless friend HD, film-collaboration, 05:12 min, Galerie Françoise Heitsch, 2021 Harry Thring Dreams Both Dark And Light oil, enamel, pencil and collage on canvas, 190cm x 95 cm (both), 2020 I Didn’t Want To Disturb Them glades ceramic and porcelain, Dimensions variable, 2021
