Collectors Agenda

In the Studio Otobong Nkanga, Antwerp

Visual artist Otobong Nkanga is a global citizen raised in Lagos, who has lived in Paris, Amsterdam, and Antwerp, and works with people all over the world. She enjoys a particularly broad and informed perspective on the planet. As an artist, but mostly simply as a human being with a physical body located in space and time, she relates to global circulation and production in local ways that are fully embodied in her art practice.

In the Studio Lars Eidinger, Berlin

Whether as Hamlet, as a serial killer in Tatort or as a human paintbrush in a video by Deichkind, Lars Eidinger, born in 1976 in Berlin, is one of Germany’s most successful film and theater actors. However, for many years Eidinger has also been making art – he photographs and presents himself as an art object in social media.

In the Studio Carlos Bunga, Mataró, Spain

Carlos Bunga’s interdisciplinary work moves between sculptural paintings, supported, yet vulnerable installations, drawings, and performances as an open, multiplicity and perpetual, reflection on how we experience and coexist with the (un)built environment.

Collector Stories Rosa Lleó and Gabriel Nogueira, Barcelona

When Rosa and her husband Gabriel met in London, they did bond over music, but soon also discovered a shared interest in art. Their Barcelona apartment, near Sagrada Família, is home to a carefully selected collection of, mainly, limited edition artworks, complemented by other objects and finds from their travels, which either hold a specific story, or which have marked an important event in the couple’s lives.

A pragmatic and playful interest in discovering the world is at the root of Sjoerd Knibbeler’s photographic work. In his photographs, Knibbeler makes usually invisible natural processes visible in aesthetically sophisticated images. “In Elements” is the first institutional exhibition of the Dutch artist in Germany.

More space for the Wiener Werkstätte (WW) at the MAK – Museum of Applied Arts, Vienna: in the room above the MAK Permanent Collection Vienna 1900, this famous institution takes center stage and is receiving a lot of attention thanks to the engagement of a contemporary artist with its wide range of products—furniture, textiles, wallpapers, and metalware. The London designer Michael Anastassiades has developed a special display in which he uses his own products and stylistic elements to create an astonishingly alienating setting for the WW exhibits.

The Vienna Secession is an exhibition space that occupies a unique position in the history of modern art. In addition to changing contemporary exhibitions by international artists, the “Beethoven Frieze” by Gustav Klimt is on permanent view.

Nordic Notes

Simon Dybbroe Møller, Berlin
Whether working with film, sculpture, installation or the written word, Simon Dybbroe Møller’s work always comes back to the photographic image. Interested in how we are shaped by the media we create, the Danish born, Berlin-based artist questions “how it feels to be bodies tumbling or stumbling through this world”.
