Rainer Fetting achieved international recognition with the “New Wild Ones” in the early 1980s. Hardly any movement in post-war Germany’s history of painting has been both as fiercely celebrated and as ferociously ostracized, as the so-called „Heftige Malerei“ („Fierce Painting“) that emerged in West Berlin’s art scene in the late 1970s and early 1980s. With its elements of Expressionist painting, his art formed in opposition to the conventions of Abstract and Conceptual Art toward the end of the 1970s is highly topical again today. Fetting’s artwork is a highly significant precursor for the “q***r” discourses on gender, identity, the individual, and power that not only shape the works of younger generations in our globalized art world but also current mainstream debates. His “expressive” portraits, cityscapes, and landscapes as well as the still lifes and flower paintings on which this exhibition focuses capture psychosocial energies that are evident in every painterly decision he makes. Works from four decades are presented here, some of them unpublished, early drawn studies and paintings from the time Fetting was commuting between New York and Berlin in the 1980s and 1990s in addition to recent paintings, works on paper, and sculptures. An illustrated book is published by Hatje Cantz Verlag in conjunction with the exhibition, with text by Oliver Koerner von Gustorf and Norman Rosenthal.
10 more days to see TOUCH ME: Nudes from the Miettinen Collection Exhibition at the Kunstraum Potsdam until 20th
of March 2022
Nudity obscures and obliterates, discloses, attracts and rejects. The n**e is the oldest artistic genre and the most enigmatic at that. To this very day it awkwardly bridges high art and po*******hy. Such work can be both at the same time: a source of erotic stimulation and a work of art.
It is precisely this tightrope walk that is to be shown in the
exhibition “TOUCH ME”. Therefore different aspects will be used: nudity in the context of ideals, self-determination or homosexuality are only a few points. The oeuvres are part of the Miettinen Collection.
Based on a text by Boris Pofalla.

Touch Me: Nudes from the Miettinen Collection at Kunstraum Potsdam @kunstraumpotsdam
Opening: 12 Februar 2022 from 2 to 6pm
12. February till 20 March 2022
The experience of the last two Corona years reveals that the less physical and social a society is, the more present the human body becomes, even if only as an image in media and visual culture. However, anyone who exhibits artistically formed nudity should be aware that it is not "natural" but the product of a complex process. What a body is and what it looks like, what it is allowed to look like, people talk about it all the time. Naked bodies are political. But how exactly? Who is looking at whom? Is it a liberation to show yourself? Or also a compulsion, an expectation? Which body image is the dominant one at a certain time, in a certain place? With its variety and depth of exhibited artwork, the Miettinen Collection can provide answers at its show „Touch Me“ at Kunstraum Potsdam - more than a hundred works from many eras can be seen - it's about nudity in the context of ideals, self-determination or sexuality.
