White Drops
Tobias Pils, Barbara Levittoux-Świderska, Seth Price, curated by Regina Fiorito 28 Apr - 20 May 2023 WHITE DROPS I once found myself lost in a city, its faces, sounds, scents, and crevices. Overrun by the incessant stream of fragmentary images that pass through the senses and seep into the mind. Faced with overwhelming stream of impressions, Rilke spoke in his letters of slowly learning to recognize... Read more -

Chances Are Great That A Delicacy Of Perception And Essential Truth Are Not Attainable
Rina Eide Løvaasen 12 Nov - 10 Dec 2022 To approach what is a densely layered exhibition by Rina Eide Løvaasen, an apt starting point would be to engage the mind and eye on the title for more than just a brief second. What you could extract from it is that any pursuit of wholiness regarding a matter is... Read more -
Nothing is bigger
Isabella Ducrot 6 Oct - 5 Nov 2022 Cosmic Tapestry Isabella Ducrot By Joanna Persman The small things … nothing is bigger. Imagine space as a continuously expanding, huge fabric.

Trude Viken 9 Apr - 6 May 2022 Trude Viken’s path is a fairy tale. A story about the good things that our ubiquitously connected world may bring.

Humlan Lange 5 Mar - 2 Apr 2022 When Humlan Lange went to the Royal Institute of Art in the eighties, painting was supposed to be fierce. Paitning little characters? I think not!

Hilde Retzlaff 17 May - 17 Jun 2018 When gazing upon the works of Hilde Retzlaff, a re-arrangement of the soul often takes place: meaningless rubbish, seamless without cause left somewhere, suddenly appears as a possible morpheme in a ghostlike language of presence.

What once was living culture... Read more -
