Quantum Kwade

Alicja Kwade is definitely one of my greatest discovery during this summer's German trip.  In addition to her appearances at Haus am Waldsee in Berlin and Kunstverein Hannover, I was very delighted to see her distinctive works again today at K21.  Her poetic play with optics and quantum mechanics is what makes her works unique.

Made In Germany Zwei

Since there are no direct trains connecting Kassel and Düsseldorf, I decided to change trains at Hannover, where I would stop for a few hours to visit a couple of places.  Showing now at three locations in Hannover - Kunstverein Hannover, Kestnergesellschaft and Sprengel Museum - is the show Made In Germany Zwei focused on German artists currently making a breakthrough to the international scene.  The limited time I had allowed me only to visit the former two venues.  I wish I had more time to examine this exciting show more thoroughly.

I also like Bernd Ribbeck, Alon Levin, Kitty Kraus, Julia Schmidt and Alexander Wolff but unfortunately I couldn't get pictures of their works at Kestnergesellschaft.

Wie kommt das Neue in die Welt?

I took another trip out of the city centre to southwest Berlin today.  At the end of line U3 of the Berlin U-Bahn, Haus am Waldsee is actually quite easy to get to.  Their current show Wie kommt das Neue in die Welt? Neun internationale Bildhauer in Berlin is a group exhibition of indoor and outdoor sculptures by German and international artists:
