The title piece of the exhibition, a large-format work typical of the artist, is titled "Jahreszeugnis" (Annual Report) and encourages reflection on several levels. Juggling currently plays a central role in Maria Legat's artistic work. It relates both theoretically and practically to innovations in her work: on the one hand, it is about developments in content, namely the attempt to deal with the apparent responsibility that a constant statement on the state of the world entails. On the other hand, it is about her own liberation as a painter from self-imposed boundaries, such as those between figuration and abstraction, precision and the ephemeral, in order to overcome this enclosure in her work. Maria Legat now keeps more distance from the narrative to generate volume with abstraction, in which viewers can increasingly contribute their own imagination. An artistic development that seems to entail an increasing complexity of world events. She juggles different techniques and stylistic devices within the canvas, making the theme of juggling visible to us viewers. We see juggling structures and people, a playful approach to challenges, of which there are many. <img width="827" height="1040" width_o="827" height_o="1040" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0bd605e233ca8d870f8a3bf6fc0d20ddc4cd97a972ec611ff24cccf788ef0b04/test.jpeg" data-mid="194015196" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/827/i/0bd605e233ca8d870f8a3bf6fc0d20ddc4cd97a972ec611ff24cccf788ef0b04/test.jpeg" />Maria Legat, Jahreszeugnis UZLDW LXXVI, 2023, 315 x 248 cm, Kohle &amp; Pigment auf vorgeleimten LeinenCourtesy Galerie3 &amp; the artist Mehr;&nbsp;@galerie_3 &amp; www.galerie3.com https://dit-vienna.art/4-18-11-2023-The-ART-EDITION_EXHIBITION-by-YYB Sat, 30 Sep 2023 16:12:42 +0000 DIT.= do it together https://dit-vienna.art/4-18-11-2023-The-ART-EDITION_EXHIBITION-by-YYB The ART EDITION_EXHIBITION Patrizia Bertassi &amp; Yara-Yvon Bertassi&nbsp; byYYB Opening: 11.10.2023 18h &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 11.–15.10.20224.–18.11.2023 Tuesday through Saturday, 12.00–19.00&amp; by appointment ART and FASHION The artist Patrizia Bertassi and the designer Yara-Yvon Bertassi developed The ART EDITION together in 2022. In addition to her large works of art, Patrizia Bertassi also creates smaller embroidered patterns in geometric and floral shapes. &nbsp;Daughter Yara-Yvon Bertassi digitized them and used textile printing processes. The designer then developed simple cut blouses and turned her mother's works of art into wearable fashion. The artist Patrizia Bertassi uses a variety of symbols in her embroidery. All of her works are created in an open process. The elaborately embroidered works invite you to immerse yourself in another world. Associations and feelings arise, fantasies form.

Join us for the presentation of Zlatan Vehabović's new artworks, complimentary of his publication 'An Atlas of the Lesser World,' published by the Museum of Arts and Crafts Zagreb. This intimate publication presentation follows his homonymous exhibitions at the National Museum of Modern Art Zagreb and the Museum of Fine Arts Split. Drawing from his unique sensibility and expressive style, often characterized by a narrative approach and collage methodology, Vehabović embarked on his artistic journey using the museum's vast collection of over a hundred thousand digital records. The outcome of this approach is a series of conceptually and formally layered compositions, where the intricate connections and processes preceding the painting’'s creation become distinctly visible. Furthermore it showcases the exceptional skill and consistent visual language for which Vehabovic has long been recognised. Our aim is to offer you an extraordinary art gathering that enables a genuine connection with Zlatan Vehabović — one of the most captivating artistic voices of our era. You'll also have the opportunity to engage directly in moderated discussions with curators Adriana Belay and Nicole Scheyerer, delving deeply into the development of Contemporary Art. Nomad's social and cultural mission is to establish a platform that contributes to the co-creation and promotion of contemporary cultural dialogue. Our ultimate goal is to shape the market for regional artists in Central Europe, fostering enduring cohesive networks in the process. Zlatan Vehabović, based in Zagreb, was born in Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1982. He graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts Zagreb, where he is currently also teaching. Noteworthy exhibitions include MoCA Zagreb, MoMA Zagreb, MoFA Split, MoMA Dubrovnik, Stadt Museum Mainz, and the Center for Contemporary Art Hudson Valley. His works are homed in collections such as &nbsp;the Museum of Contemporary Art Zagreb, Albertina Modern Vienna, European Central Bank Art Collection Frankfurt, European Parliament Collection Brussels, Erste Fragments Zagreb, Lauba Foundation Zagreb, Maistra Collection Rovinj, and Eileen S. Kaminsky Family Foundation New York.

Leicht geknickt und von der drückenden Hitze der Sommersonne gebeutelt hängen sie im&nbsp;Ausstellungsraum ab. Vorbei die&nbsp;Tage, an denen sie wacker und aufrecht Stunde um Stunde als stumme Begleiter verunsicherten Jugendlichen den betrunkenen Weg nach Hause wiesen und Tausenden von Motten gleich jenen ins Paradies. Als melodiöse Liebeshelden wie Gene Kelly sich in You Are My Lucky Star (1952) von ihnen Halt geben ließen und singend in die nächste Sommerromanze schwangen.&nbsp;Als sie die Transitstraßen von Schlafstädten zu Industriehochburgen erhellten, auf denen die Schichtbusse rollten.&nbsp;Als sie noch den hoffnungsvollen Weg in eine sacht gelblich ausgeleuchtete Zukunft wiesen. Es ist, als hätten sie genug gesehen.&nbsp;Ausgefranst&nbsp;und&nbsp;abgeknabbert&nbsp;ragen&nbsp;die&nbsp;Kabelenden&nbsp;der&nbsp;Arbeit Untitled (2023) in&nbsp;den&nbsp;Raum. Ungewiss bleibt, wodurch die Verbindung gekappt wurde. Gewiss sind die Konsequenzen, denen die Objekte nun mit letzter Kraft entgegen leuchten: Es geht zu Ende. Sie teilen das Schicksal mit bunten Ballons, die auf dem Jahrmarkt Kinderaugen glänzen lassen, um dann im stetigen Sinkflug von der Kinderzimmerdecke in den Müll zu wandern. Die Überwältigung der Welt durch Licht bildet blinde Flecken, wo Übersicht entstehen soll. So lange leitete es den Menschen durch seine eigene Geschichte. Jahrtausende. Sie handelt von Erkenntnis und Erlösung, von&nbsp;Heil&nbsp;und&nbsp;Fortschritt.&nbsp;Der&nbsp;Orientierung&nbsp;und&nbsp;der&nbsp;Distinktion.Gut&nbsp;ist&nbsp;das&nbsp;Helle,&nbsp;das&nbsp;Aufgeklärte (das im englischen nicht ohne Grund direkt mit Enlightenment übersetzt wird), Schlecht ist das Dunkel unddamit das Unsichtbare und Unverstandene. Doch im Fahrwasser der&nbsp;technologischen&nbsp;Durchdringung unserer Welt durch Licht und Beleuchtung zeigen sich erste&nbsp;Anzeichen des Verschleißes. Der Kälte der unbeleuchteten Höhle, dem Dunkel der Unwissenheit, der&nbsp;Angst vor dem Raubmord auf der dunklen Straße entkamen die Bewohner der Städte seit der&nbsp;Antike durch das Installieren von Beleuchtungsmitteln auf ihren öffentlichen Plätzen. Im Absolutismus folgte der erste große Auftritt des Lichts als politischer Akteur, der&nbsp;nochheute&nbsp;deutlich&nbsp;sichtbar&nbsp;markiert,&nbsp;wessen&nbsp;Öffentlichkeit&nbsp;als&nbsp;Öffentlichkeit&nbsp;verstanden&nbsp;wird. Nach Jahrhunderten der fossilen Brennstoffe – von Waltran über Petroleum und Gas – trat das blaue Licht&nbsp;seinen&nbsp;bis&nbsp;heute&nbsp;bestehenden&nbsp;Siegeszug&nbsp;an.&nbsp;Seine&nbsp;frechen&nbsp;kurzen&nbsp;Welle raubender&nbsp;Welt&nbsp;weniger Ressourcen, doch zugleich den Schlaf. Von ihrer eigenen Performance erschöpft, ihr eigenes Gewicht nicht mehr tragend, knicken die Lampenskulpturen – Boliden aus Stahl, Zink und&nbsp;Aluminium, ein. Gebaut für die Ewigkeit, verbraucht im eiligen Schritt des Fortschritts, der niemals bremsen darf, nur brennen. Es ist zu hell. Hungrig starrt der Frosch, tief sind seine&nbsp;Augenringe.

Bastian Gehbauer, Phantasma (2022) HR2, 170 x 135 cm, Pigment Print | framed - polished aluminium | Copyright: Bastian Gehbauer &amp; Akademie der Künste Berlin | Courtesy HOTO Berlin Bastian Gehbauer's series Phantasma (2022) is an archival work evolved from photographs of the estate of Berlin-based modernist architect Harry Rosenthal. The photographs are of a studio house, built for the literary figure Arnold Zweig and completed in 1931, a building that no longer exists. A Nazi general named Kaupisch, had the entire structure transformed in 1938 to eliminate the Jewish modernist "eyesore," as he called it. By that time, the architect and owner of the building had already fled Germany because of their Jewish ancestry. For Bastian Gehbauer, Rosenthal's negatives went from being a contemporary document to a portal, an entrance into an extinct place, a bygone era. Similar to a door, he cut portrait formats out of the landscape-format negatives, directing the gaze to what seemed essential to him. He made a picture within a picture. <img width="1819" height="2273" width_o="1819" height_o="2273" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/00ae38db621df9b1258a3cee2116a27bc65d371ee958982c7716d3b7a56f0a20/image002.jpg" data-mid="177573530" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/00ae38db621df9b1258a3cee2116a27bc65d371ee958982c7716d3b7a56f0a20/image002.jpg" /> Credit:2.
