Fiona Mackay – no moon
For her third solo exhibition at Klemm’s, Fiona Mackay’s no moon features eight paintings which reflect the artist’s creative process over the past year. These diverse images purposefully meddle with the viewers’ expectations of the painting medium – contradicting and sometimes dismantling any fixed meanings. Instead Mackay’s work interrogates how an image can be held, or understood.

DAOULA | sheen
In the West African nation of Burkina Faso, Daoula is a term that translates both to sheen and charisma: a sought-after quality in people, animals and things. And one animal has it in particular. The wild silk worm which spins its nest on the West African savannah creates a cocoon from which local communities extract precious fabric, making it into fine clothing. This show, in the beautiful space of the Tieranatomisches Theatre, brings these wild silk cocoons to Berlin, inspiring a new creative dialogue across cultures and types of practice.

Nandita Kumar – From Paradigm To Paradigm, Into the Biomic Time
This sound installation from Nandita Kumar reminds viewers of a newspaper press stuck in an eternal loop, speaking to breakdown of communication in the modern age. This is a work which seeks to crack open and show the working of the objects of its critique, employing the the tools of data manipulation and an algorithmic generator of untrue statement alongside its glitching musical code. Towards the end of its run, this work will also appear as part of the program of MaerzMusilk Festival.

Last Chance
‘125 Years of Noack’
The famous Noack Sculpture Foundry has produced sculptures for Wilhelm Lehmbruck, Käthe Kollwitz, Georg Baselitz, among others. It’s also where the Berlinale has its award sculptures made. It’s safe to say that the history of sculpture in Germany over the 20th century is closely linked to the Noack. This year, the Noack turns 125 and is celebrating with a retrospective anniversary exhibition – taking visitors on a journey into the history of the Noack. On Saturday November 12th, the exhibition will open with a book presentation followed by a party in the Bar Brass restaurant.

Michel Majerus
With last year marking the 20th anniversary of Michel Majerus’s death, Berlin has seen an array of retrospectives of the artist’s work. This showcase at the Neue Berliner Kunstverein (n.b.k.) will feature installations by Majerus which were shown at the Galerie Neugeriemschneider exhibition back in 1994. Majerus’ work focuses on the social paradigms that characterised the 1990s – the dawn of the virtual age, the increasing presence of computers and the internet, the spread of mass media and the power of advertising and youth culture. All these elements are as relevant today as they were during Majerus’ life.

Tina Modotti, ‘Revolution and Passion’
Actress, photographer and activist Tina Modotti (1896-1942) is arguably one of the most enigmatic figures in the history of photography. Originally from Italy, Modotti lived and worked in Mexico for a significantly creative period in her life. There, she documented the politics of the time, collaborating with friends and contemporaries like Frida Kahlo, Manuel Álvarez Bravo, Lotte Jacobi, Anna Seghers and Pablo Neruda.

‘Magyar Modern: Hungarian Art in Berlin 1910-1933’
This new exhibition at the Berlinische Galerie breaks new ground in its exploration of the artistic links between Berlin and Hungarian Modernism. After Hungary’s failed revolution of 1919, Weimar Republic-Berlin became an important locale for exiled creatives and intellectuals. Making up one of the largest exile communities in Berlin at the time, an unmistakable impact was made on the avant garde culture of this era. Featuring works by Lászlo Móholy-Nagy and Oskar Kaufman, ‘Magyar Modern’ follows the the life of Hungarian Modernism in the German capital, leading up to its ultimate repression under the Nazi Party.

Ruth Wolf-Rehfeldt, ‘Like a Spider in a Web’ (Hannah Hӧch Prize 2022)
At 90 years old, Ruth Wolf-Rehfeltd has received the 2022 Hannah Hӧch Prize for her extensive output of paintings, drawing and typewriter graphics, much of which was produced as subversive mail art under DDR rule. Alongside the award, the Kupferstichkabinett (Museum of Prints and Drawings) is holding a major retrospective of the artist’s work. ‘Like a Spider in a Web’ features a number of Wolf-Rehfeltd’s Typewritings – collages of typewritten text which form a kind of visual poetry. During the DDR era, the artist would secretly mail these small-scale works to other artists both inside and outside of East German control.

Thomas Rentmeister
Under the Schwartze Villa Gallery’s theme ‘Field Studies of the Everyday’, artist Thomas Rentmeister has created a series of sculptural works using everything from food to hygiene products and old appliances. Often resembling human forms, the artist’s sculptures bring together the grotesque and the beautiful with a kind of humorous social criticism. Rentmeister’s exhibition at the Schwartz creates a sense of interest and even beauty to the mundane materials of our everyday lives.

‘Paint it All’
Only recently, Künstlerhaus Bethanien hosted a somewhat indecisive overview of painting in Germany.

Exhibitions
Fruits of Wrath – Attempt at comprehension: Ukraine

Yuriy Biley – FREEDOM FOR ALL – The Value of These Words Also Depends on You
KVOST is another Berlin gallery who have turned their artistic eye to the ongoing war in Ukraine, inviting the visual artist and curator Yuriy Biley to display works in their illuminated window. Biley uses the archive photos of German postwar photographer Rolf Goetze, but obscures their original context, giving new life and meaning to pictures from the Cold War.

Nan Goldin – Käthe Kollwitz Prize 2022
US artist Nan Goldin is being awarded the Käthe Kollwitz Prize for 2022 – and to mark that honour the Akademie der Künste are showing an exhibition of her works spanning five decades.

Nikolaus Gansterer – Strange Wor(l)ds
Austrian philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein was obsessed with the relationship between language and reality. Did language form the world, or reflect it? Was it possible to experience anything truly “outside” language? Gansterer takes up these questions and pushes them further into the field of drawing, adapting concepts in a new visual language. The artist has also collaborated on a book – Playing With Ludwig – published on the occasion of this show.

Monty Richthofen, ‘Cheap Hedonism’
Monty Richthofen (aka Maison Hefner) opens his first exhibition at Dittrich & Schlechtriem with ‘Cheap Hedonism’. The showcase explores the unbridled consumerism, advancing globalisation and constant online availability of today.

Brett Charles Seiler, ‘Riding in Cars with Boys’
In his paintings, Brett Charles Seiler creates a space that flickers between desire and anxiety, the artist explores queer history, the male body, domestic space, poetry, love, alienation and Biblical symbolism. This new exhibition features works with a range of materials and Seiler’s evocative style sometimes includes old black and white photos and textiles.

Isa Genzken
Isa Genzken’s art is glamorous, vulgar and never predictable. The veteran Berlin artist has been a major player in the contemporary German art scene for almost 5 decades, but still refuses to be pinned down. At this comprehensive exhibition at the Buchholz Gallery, the spotlight is on Genzken graphic work.

‘100 Years of Nosferatu’
The silent film classic Nosferatu is considered one of the most influential horror films of all time, and the character of Count Orlok has served as the model for countless film monsters. Less well known, however, is the influence of Romantic and Expressionist art on the film’s look and feel. To celebrate 100 years since the film’s release, the Scharf-Gerstenberg Collection presents works by artists such as Alfred Kubin, Caspar David Friedrich and Franz Sedlacek, whose motifs and fantastic scenery had a major influence on the film’s aesthetic. The show also illuminates how Nosferatu is still impacting art and pop culture today, and even invites visitors to donate blood in cooperation with the German Red Cross on 21 December.

‘Roads not Taken’
This new exhibition at the Deutsches Historisches Museum looks back at a series of decisive historical events throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, imagining what would have happened if things had turned out differently. Exploring alternative outcomes to the fall of the Berlin Wall, the first presence of tanks at Checkpoint Charlie, the Nazi’s election victory and more.

Galli, ‘anyone who can count to three can be saved’
Born in 1944, Galli established herself in the West Berlin art scene in the late 1970s and early 1980s, when she carved out her own niche amidst the masculine transgression of the painterly style of the time. At this major retrospective of the artist’s work at the Kraupa-Tuskany-Zeidler, Galli’s paintings depict strange anthropomorphic creatures exploring themes of vulnerability, disfigurement, domesticity and mythology.

Monica Bonvicini, ‘I DO YOU’
Monica Bonvicini is arguably one of the most important artists working today. Her new exhibition at the Neue Nationalgalerie centres around a huge mirrored wall plastered with the provocative slogan “I do you”. Through a number of architectural interventions, Bonvicini confronts the austerity of the Neue Nationalgalerie building itself. Designed by Mies van der Rohe, the Modernist structure is characterised by expansive windows and tall steel pillars. Bonvicini breaks through the coldness of the design, which she considers chauvinistic. Continuing her engagement with punk-feminist histories, the second level of the exhibition features an interactive handcuff installation allowing visitors get intimate with the artist’s work.
- 25.11.22 – 30.04.23.
- Neue Nationalgalerie Potsdamer Str. 50, Tiergarten, details.
‘Waterfalls and Spirits’
This is the newest exhibition at Haus des Papiers (a gallery which, as the name suggests, exhibits art exclusively made of paper). The showcase features work by Harriett Groß, one of the gallery’s artists in residence. Groß creates enigmatic, relief-like images inspired by sound recordings of waterfalls.
- Haus des Papiers Seydelstr. 30, Mitte, details, until summer 2023.
‘Guilty! Guilty! Guilty!’
Curated by art historian Sonja LauIn, ‘Guilty, Guilty, Guilty!’ takes a long, hard look at feminist criminology. The exhibition examines how gender comes into play in criminal prosecution and trials. Contributions from 16 artists deal with historical cases, like the infamous kidnapping of wealthy heiress Patricia Hearst and her alleged involvement in the robberies that followed her abduction. The showcase also includes İpek Duben’s installation, LoveGame which brings focus to the realities of domestic violence.

‘1922 – George Grosz travels to Soviet Russia’
In 1922, when Russian avant-garde artists fled to Berlin from the newly founded Soviet Union, George Grosz travelled in the opposite direction: to Moscow, where he’s said to have met with Lenin himself. The following year, however, he resigned from the KPD (the German Communist Party). This new exhibition in the Grosz Museum aims to shed light on whether the artist’s decision was a consequence of this journey. The exhibition focuses on Grosz’s works from this era, including his lithograph “Ants” from the portfolio “In the Shadow” (1921). In addition, the Grosz Museum team was able to conduct research in Russian archives before the war against Ukraine.

‘Deep Rivers Flow Gently’ at the Czech Embassy
The Czech Embassy is an architectural highlight in its own right, but its cultural centre is currently hosting an exhibition that’s also worth a visit. The showcase, ‘Deep Rivers Flow Gently’, features paintings, sculptures and video works by three young Czech artists. The exhibition focuses on the theme of sustainability, discussing topics like mushroom ecosystems, bee swarm-visualisations and water scarcity.

‘Adventure on the Nile: Prussia and Egyptology, 1842-45’
This exhibition revisits the famous 19th-century Prussian expedition along the Nile. Harkening back to the beginnings of Egyptology as a field of study, ‘Adventure on the Nile’ certainly doesn’t attempt to present itself as any kind of post-colonial critique. The exhibition seems to steer clear of topical discussions around looted artefacts and reappropriation, but nevertheless presents a broad selection of pieces and can certainly still be enjoyed as a historical throwback.

- Neues Museum, Bodestr. Mitte, details
Thilo Heinzmann, ‘playing slowies’
In this solo exhibition at neugerriemschneider gallery, artist Thilo Heinzmann exhibits a series of his characteristically ephemeral paintings. The use of colour in Heinzmann’s works is sparse and unpredictable. The Icelandic composer Jóhann Jóhannsson once dedicated a string quartet in twelve delicate movements to Heinzmann’s work, which perhaps says more about these paintings than words can.
- 17.09.22 – 18.03.23

‘Quantity and Quality’
In a special exhibition, the team of the Altes Museum pay tribute to the mass-produced clay figurines of ancient Greece. Once believed to be of little cultural or historical value due to their small size and the cheap material used to make them, the exhibition revisits these works as important relics of the ancient world.
- Until 02.07.23
- Altes Museum, Bodestr. 1-3, Mitte, details.
‘Escribir todos sus nombres’
The dictator Franco ruled Spain until 1975, but already more than a decade earlier female artists were critically addressing their everyday lives and the political situation of their country. Lola Hinojosa of Madrid’s Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía has curated this new exhibition at the Palais Populaire, which draws on a selection of paintings, collages, macramé works and photographs spanning 60 years of Spanish history.

Mona Hatoum
The third chapter of Mona Hatoum’s retrospective opens on September 18. Parts one and two are already on display at the Georg Kolbe Museum and the Neues Berliner Kunstverein respectively.

Maria Lassnig
Maria Lassnig’s work transforms pain, desire, smells and digestion into colourful canvases filled with idiosyncratic, distorted bodies. Her work can now be seen in the municipal Gutshaus Steglitz, alongside works from the Munich Klewan Collection. Maria Lassnig (1919-2014), who lived in Berlin for a year, is an artist who only achieved world wide renown in her old age. Never give up!

All Hands On: Flechten
Finally, the Museum of European Cultures (MEK) strikes again with a major exhibition. “All Hands On: Weaving” presents masterpieces of art, craft and design, anonymous pieces made of straw and bark as well as the new work “The Woven Garden” (photo.) by Olaf Holzapfel, a participant in Documenta five years ago. A welcome occasion for a subway ride to Dahlem: which is also worth a trip for beer gardens, bookstores at the university, parks and the Domäne Dahlem agricultural museum a short distance from the MEK. Perfect for a long weekend.

This new exhibition at Potsdam’s Barberini Museum celebrates the iconography of the sun in art, from antiquity to the present day. With Monet’s 1872 painting Impression, Sunrise as its point of departure, the showcase explores the sun as a symbol of divine power, an atmospheric element in landscape imagery and an intensification of colour in modern painting.
