SHADES OF RED

12.03. to 14.03.2025
by
weissensee kunsthochschule berlin

Class of Albrecht Schäfer & Jeewi Lee in collaboration with Tomke Braun,

on the occasion of the German Congress for Psychosomatic Medicine and Psychotherapy

Pulse. Rush. Ecstasy. Intensity. Irritation. Transformation. Photography. Eroticism. Healing. Warmth. Love. Body.

The exhibition by students of the weissensee kunsthochschule berlin is inspired by the theme of the psychosomatic congress Relationships in Crisis – New Beginnings and translates its questions into the artistic realm. How do societal upheavals affect our relationships? Where do crises leave their traces – in bodies, in images, in materials? And what new forms of togetherness emerge in times of change?
Immersed in red light, the artworks transform: contours soften, shadows deepen, colors interact with their surroundings. The light amplifies what is already present – or reveals new layers. At times, the red appears demanding, at others, embracing or unsettling.

With Canberk Akcal, Mathilda Augart, Hannah Brenner, Lucas Burgfried, Julius c. Jeansson, Luan Caja, Yan Chmarau, Colette Callec, Araiké Da Silva, Nina Frommelt, Liangshiyu Liu, Sofía Mariaca Ewel, Youde Monga, Sieglinde Obexer, Paul Ohnersorgen, Caterina Palumbo, Janosch Raabe, Esther Valerie Riegler, Ida-Marie Simonsen, Leevke Succow

THE UN/REQUESTED

On Repeat on view in the Notagallery

10.1. to 24.1.25

Once a vessel for stories, music, and voices of the past, the cassette tape now unravels—both entangling and shaping a form. A dog, woven from tangled tape, emerges in a delicate balance between order and chaos, freedom and confinement, memory and loss.

What are we searching for when we retrace our steps?
Repetition, often seen as inefficiency, here becomes transformation. In returning to the beginning, new pathways unfold—just as in healing, where repetition can reveal unexpected possibilities.
