We recommend this event at highly esteemed SAVVY Contemporary - author Peter Chametzky also mentions Galerie Kai Dikhas and it’s artists in his book.

This Wednesday, we are looking forward to welcome Peter Chametzky for a conversation with our Arlette about his latest publication: Turks, Jews, and Other Germans in Contemporary Art. In it, the work of more than thirty German artists, including Candice Breitz, Mwangi Hutter, Dr. Natasha A. Kelly, Maziar Moradi, Farkhondeh Shahroudi, Hito Steyerl, Nasan Tur and more.
There works are discussed in a variety of media that both critique and expand notions of identity and community. Chametzky offers a counternarrative to the fiction of an exclusively white, Christian German culture. He considers works that deploy critical, confrontational, and playful uses of language, especially German and Turkish; that assert the presence of “foreign bodies” among the German body politic; that grapple with food as a cultural marker; that engage with mass media; and that depict and inhabit spaces imbued with the element of time.

Come join us!

Last chance: „The Dead are not Dead“ mit Delaine Le Bas, Daniel Baker, Otto Pankok, Francisco de Goya, Robert Gabris, Helios Gómez und und und… Vielen Dank für diese tolle Ausstellung!

Nach neun Monaten, 73 geöffneten Tagen und einem fulminanten Flamenco-Fest* am vergangenen Wochenende geht "Actually, the Dead Are Not Dead. Una forma de ser" zu Ende. Trotz wiederkehrender pandemiebedingter Schließungen war die Ausstellung über all die Wochen präsent und wurden ihre Themen unter anderem in verschiedenen Online-Formaten diskutiert: die politischen und emanzipatorischen Dimensionen des Festes, insbesondere des Flamencos, sowie Formen der Diskriminierung, des Widerstands und der Selbstermächtigung von Sinti*zze und Rom*nja.

Mehr zur Ausstellung hier: https://bit.ly/3dZQGJi

Wir laden herzlich zu einem letzten Ausstellungsbesuch ein. Am Sonntag, den 11. Juli 2021, findet um 15 Uhr eine kostenfreie öffentliche Führung statt. Um 16:30 Uhr bietet Iris Dressler, Direktorin des Württembergischen Kunstvereins, eine letzte Kurator*innenführung durch die Ausstellung an.

After nine months, 73 open days, and a brilliant flamenco festival* last weekend, "Actually, the Dead Are Not Dead: Una forma de ser" comes to a close. Despite recurring closures due to the pandemic, the exhibition has been present throughout the weeks and its themes have been discussed in various online formats, among others: the political and emancipatory dimensions of the festival, especially of flamenco, as well as forms of discrimination, resistance and self-empowerment of Sinti and Roma.

Further info: https://bit.ly/3e4nOzE

We cordially invite you to a final visit to the exhibition. On Sunday, July 11, 2021, there will be a free public tour at 3 pm. At 4:30 pm Iris Dressler, director of the Württembergischer Kunstverein, will offer a last curatorial tour through the exhibition.

A beautiful new piece by George M Vasilescu, soon on view Galerie Kaidikhas GmbH&Co.Kg!

"IF" lead by George Mihai-Vasilescu supported by ERIAC in the framework of the "Going Digital Culture" category of the Arts and Culture Innovation Program Fund (https://eriac.org/eriac-arts-and-culture-innovation-program/)
This project comes with a controversial question - why are exemplary figures preferred as objects of sculpture, and the poor and those with simple lives are set aside. The “IF” project consists of a set of 6 sculptures, made in collaboration with the Roma craftsman Nevers. The six sculptures, the size between 60-80cm represent the busts of six simple Roma women, without much education and with precarious jobs. Each of the six sculptures is accompanied by a 2-minute video with the model of the sculpture caught in an activity that will highlight its expressiveness - serving a draft beer in a cheap tavern, cooking, washing some block stairs, etc.
Vasilescu regarding the project: “The series of works, Roma Women, is introspection about what human nature means. I made these shapes starting from the idea of a strand of hair.” Vasilescu has created a total of 6 pieces that are associated with a video of a woman, the ones Vasilescu got inspired by.
