09.09. - 04.12.2021
Opening Thursday 09 September, 6 – 9 pm

WIEDERSEHEN is a group show uniting the artists who have shown their works through the windows of DISKURS Berlin during two series of exhibition relays, "Solidarity, FightBack, SunGoesUp" in 2020 and "It May Sound Utopian“ in 2021. Interestingly, most of the artists have never met before in person. It is the first opening after 18 months of closed doors and sets the stage for a post-pandemic phase, without knowing what remains and what changes.

The eyes, associated with seeing (“Sehen“) are, since Aristotle, considered the most important of our five senses and for sure the one which first comes into one’s mind when we think about art. But “Wiedersehen” has the connotation of meeting again, which comprises all of our senses: we encounter something familiar in a different way, in an unprecedented context, with new expectations and reactions.

As we say in German: “Wiedersehen macht Freude” or the joy of reunion is something that we all hopefully experience these days – seeing each other again. While keeping contact in smaller circles and virtual meetings, a physical “Wiedersehen” seems irreplaceable for us since we longed for it.
