ED FORNIELES, "Der Geist: Flesh Feast"
29.04 – 11.06

Ed Fornieles’ first solo exhibition in Berlin chronicles the artist’s experience following a corporate-zen style “self-management diet.” He documents his experience through a series of sculptures, cartoonish infographics, banners, and a film. Additionally, there will be self-management diet starter packs available for those visitors looking to optimize mind/body potential and to internalize suggestive critiques of late-capitalist wellness culture.

RACHEL HARRISON, "Depth Jump to Second Box"
29.04 – 25.06
Kraupa-Tuskany Zeidler

Rachel Harrison’s gallery weekend installation will occupy both the AKTNZ gallery space as well as a shared and "fully-equipped" conference room in the gallery’s building near Alexanderplatz. The installation reflects on the failed promise of the conference room where “dry-erase infrastructures contain an aspect of outdated futurism” in an era of immaterial labor.

RICHARD PHILLIPS, “New Paintings”
29.04 – 11.06
Mathew Gallery

“New Paintings” builds on an exhibition from earlier this year at Mathew Gallery’s outpost in New York. The work included combines strategies of process-based abstraction and hyper-realism, reinvigorating the efficacy of the two canonized artistic gestures by putting them in tension with one another. —

Openings for all of the above exhibitions will take place Friday April 29, 6 – 9pm
