EN DE

DITTRICH & SCHLECHTRIEM are delighted to present a group exhibition with works by KETUTA ALEXI-MESKHISHVILI, KATJA AUFLEGER, JAGODA BEDNARSKY, KASIA FUDAKOWSKI, ISABELLE GRAEFF, HANNAH HALLERMANN, GREGOR HILDEBRANDT, NADIRA HUSAIN, VERENA ISSEL, KATARINA JANEČKOVÁ WALSHE, MICHELLE JEZIERSKI, CAROLINE KRYZECKI, MONTY RICHTHOFEN, NADINE SCHEMMANN, JENNA SUTELA, YOUNG-JUN TAK, SLAVS AND TATARS and ANNA VIRNICH, initiated by Juliet Kothe and Natanja von Stosch in conjunction with their publication Boobs in the Arts—Fe:male Bodies in Pictorial History, which will be released by Distanz Verlag in September.

The exhibition picks up on selected concerns in the publication. The paintings, photographs, sculptures, and textile works on view elaborate on associations around themes that emerge in a sustained engagement with the so-called feminine. The artists explore perspectives on and narratives about the fe:male body and the breast.

Titled Supporters Exhibition for Boobs in the Arts—Fe:male Bodies in Pictorial History,  the exhibition is mounted to raise support funding for the publication. After the opening on Friday, July 7, 2023, 6–8pm, it will be on view through Saturday, July 29, 2023.

We would like to thank the participating artists for supporting the project with their works. The proceeds from all sales will be shared between the artists, the gallery, and the editors to help pay for the book project.

The publication Boobs in the Arts—Fe:male Bodies in Pictorial History surveys historic and contemporary depictions of the fe:male breast, scrutinizing the diverse perspectives on breasts and ways they have been represented since the early twentieth century.

For further information on the artists and works or to request images, please contact Ricarda Bergmann, ricarda(at)dittrich-schlechtriem.com.

DITTRICH & SCHLECHTRIEM freuen sich, anlässlich der im September beim Distanz Verlag erscheinenden Publikation Boobs in the Arts – Fe:male Bodies in Pictorial History eine von den Herausgeberinnen Juliet Kothe und Natanja von Stosch initiierte Gruppenausstellung mit Werken von KETUTA ALEXI-MESKHISHVILI, KATJA AUFLEGER, JAGODA BEDNARSKY, KASIA FUDAKOWSKI, ISABELLE GRAEFF, HANNAH HALLERMANN, GREGOR HILDEBRANDT, NADIRA HUSAIN, VERENA ISSEL, KATARINA JANEČKOVÁ, MICHELLE JEZIERSKI, CAROLINE KRYZECKI, MONTY RICHTHOFEN, NADINE SCHEMMANN, JENNA SUTELA, YOUNG-JUN TAK, SLAVS AND TATARS und ANNA VIRNICH zu präsentieren.

Die Ausstellung greift punktuell Inhalte der Publikation auf. Die gezeigten Arbeiten, in den Medien der Malerei, Fotografie, Skulptur und Textil, beziehen sich assoziativ auf Themen, die sich aus der Auseinandersetzung mit dem sogenannten Weiblichen ableiten. Die Künstler:innen untersuchen Perspektiven auf und Narrationen über den weiblichen Körper und die Brust.

Die Ausstellung mit dem Titel Supporters Exhibition for Boobs in the Arts – Fe:male Bodies in Pictorial History unterstützt die Finanzierung der Publikation und wird am Freitag, 7. Juli 2023, von 18–20 Uhr eröffnen und bis einschließlich Samstag, 29. Juli 2023, zu sehen sein.

Wir danken den teilnehmenden Künstler:innen, die das Projekt mit ihren Arbeiten unterstützen. Die Einnahmen aus allen Verkäufen werden zwischen den Künstler:innen, der Galerie und den Herausgeberinnen geteilt, um das Buchprojekt zu finanzieren.

Die Publikation Boobs in the Arts – Fe:male Bodies in Pictorial History gibt einen Überblick über historische und zeitgenössische Darstellungen der weiblichen Brust und nimmt dabei die unterschiedlichen Perspektiven und Repräsentationsweisen von Brüsten seit Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts in den Blick.

Für weitere Informationen zu den Künstler:innen und den Arbeiten oder um Bildmaterial anzufordern, wenden Sie sich bitte an Ricarda Bergmann, ricarda(at)dittrich-schlechtriem.com.
