INTRO

With the exhibition title "BLIND VISION" we want to point out not only a view of Berlin but also the unfortunate (spatial) situation of artists in Berlin, especially that of the Ateliergemeinschaft Treptow-Ateliers. Their old studio location in Mörikestraße was terminated in 2018 after six lively years of exchange, mutual support and joint art presentation. The resistance to stay remained unsuccessful, so that the community found an interim use at the current location in the Rathenau-Hallen on Wilhelminenhofstraße as a stopgap solution in 2020. The expected bad news came just in these days. The studio community with 26 artists will have to move out again by the end of the year (Link current statement Treptow-Ateliers e.V.: https://www.treptow-ateliers.de/post/treptow-ateliers-vor-dem-aus)

BLIND VISION

Anyone who has moved to Berlin in recent decades has played a part in the development of this city. For some, it conveyed an atmosphere of departure (or even "dependency") in an alternative and avant-garde sense; for others, it was merely a projection surface for profane economic interests pushed by global market events. There was never a vision for all. Politicians were merely trying to pick the pearls out of many alternative ideas. For example, the nightlife and the precarious life of artists were included in the marketing of Berlin. This blind vision is now reflected in a place of action. An unrenovated former industrially used hall and other rooms formerly used as offices, which were made available to the artists' community "Treptow-Ateliers" together with their cheaply rented temporary studios as a temporary playground by an investor. The community itself opened the space for third-party projects. The rawness of the historic site, the desire and spontaneity of the alternative users inevitably lead back to the aura of Berlin in the 1980s and 1990s. And of course Berlin still works like that. But the atmosphere is deceptive, the awakening already sits in the neck, like a drug that slowly loses its effect. Because it all ends, and without romanticism. The artists soon have to go back to their nomadic way. Only that they are not nomadic, but originally displaced from their cherished place of work. Their journey is already unique, because they stick together in solidarity in their seemingly hopeless situation. What could become, what could be? Why is it a blind vision?

Greenhouse - Metamorphoses of Order

Welcoming Speech
Heike Schmitt-Schmelz | District City Councilor
Elke von der Lieth | Department of Culture

The title "Greenhouse" picks up on what the exhibition venue, the Orangerie is original:
a greenhouse. Here, in the small Orangerie at Charlottenburg Palace, it is primarily a place for overwintering. A greenhouse is also a place of cultivation and controlled growth, of cultivated and optimized nature.

The artists are fascinated by the greenhouse as a kind of in-between world with its own conditions in the interplay between nature and culture. Instead of plants, their works now thrive in the greenhouse. Unusual constellations and encounters occur. Organisms mutate and new variants emerge.

The exhibition ABOUT ORDER by artists Sandra Contreras, Anette Kuhn, Sabine Linse,

Mariel Poppe, Héctor Velázquez Guitérrez and María Tello adopts fragments of the storyline

of Maltese cultural history and their dynamics.
Since 1991, the Berlin Artist Group has exhibited their artistic work together in various spaces.

Their collaborations are characterized by common reflections of philosophical topics, artistic

materials and different modes of production. ABOUT ORDER develops previously unknown

relationships and intercultural points of contact between them. Through these interactions,

a mysterious Palimpsest has arisen, comparable to a precious book with enigmatic overwritings.

Visitors of the exhibition will be delighted by the presence of beauty and the material quality of

Since 2005, quotations from past decades (mostly from the 1980s) have been the titles of the annual One Night Group shows at Spor Klübü. This year there are two quotes available to which the invited artists can refer: "PEACE - dont make me laugh" and "You A Two Minute Brother". Both have their origins in the early 1990s and come from the Afro-American hip-hop and rap scene. "PEACE - dont make me laugh" is the opening line of the song "Endangered Species (Tales From The Darkside)" from Ice Cube's 1990 album "AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted". The song is directed against a racist America marked by police violence. The lyrics and music of BWP a.k.a. Bytches With Problems are also located in the same context - with the difference that they come from a feminist point of view and powerfully clear up the male (rapper) patriarchy. The quote "You A Two Minute Brother" comes from the song "Two Minute Brother" from BWP's first and only (published) album "The Bytches".

"PEACE - dont make me laugh" - if you transfer this saying into current political events, you couldn't put it better. Now that "fake or false talk" has established itself more than ever on the political level, warlike intentions and violations of international law are now being declared peace missions. There is no need to name the people involved, because their style is - as they are - not only known, but also no longer generates fright or a collective international outcry. "You A Two Minute Brother. Only a few female hip-hop musicians have managed to equal their male counterparts in terms of crude lyrics with contemptuous expressions against the opposite sex. The "Bytches" did exactly that and embodied justice, even if they did it in the same devastating way. In "Two Minute Brother" they make a notch in the macho behaviour and hit the (given) masculinity in a sensitive place - during sex.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Deep Surface adopts the year's theme: 'The Appearance of Things' by delving into the continuing issue of daily confusion: To what extent can we trust our perception?Does it not inevitably cling to the surface? Do increasingly precise observations and ever more exact investigation methods not lead to a fathoming of ever finer folds of a nevertheless opaque surface? Which - by the way - raises the question: is there at all something which lies beneath, or is it just an increasingly deeper folding of the surface?
