From Russia with Love
Exhibition by Sergey Sovkov
26.02. – 23.03.2015

Some are still around: the good news from Russia.
This one is about an unconventional artist, who refused to stop painting exactly what he finds appealing and is most interested in: The fascination of the male nude portrait Sergey Sovkov, born 1972, lives and works in Tolyatti, a city on the shores of the Volga, which is known mostly for their large automobile industry. From 1997 until 2004 Sergey Sovkov passed through a classic academic education in fine arts, which he completed in 2004 at the internationally renowned State Academy ‘Repin’ in St. Petersburg.
A crucial element of his work is, besides still lives and cityscapes, the male nude portrait, in drawings, pastels and above all painted in oil. Whereas these stand out due to their specific and unmistakable technique; especially their richness and choice of colours are a reminder to figural mosaics or expressionistic stained-glass windows.
Without doubt his models are Russian men, who are depicted in their natural environment. That is in Putins weird empire already a fact, which falls under the outlandish laws of ‘homosexual propaganda’. The consequence being that Sergey Sovkov had to resign from his post as a lecturer for fine arts.

Gruppenausstellung
27. November 2014 – 19. Januar 2015

Traditionell eröffnen wir am letzten Donnerstag des Novembers unsere 30×30-Ausstellung – dieses Jahr zum zwölften Mal in Folge. Sie wird dieses Jahr etwas kleiner ausfallen und wir lockern auch die bisher ausschließliche Hängung in 4er oder 9er Blöcken, so dass wir nunmehr auch Einzelstücke und Reihen zeigen können.

Die Künstler sind wieder vielfältig vertreten von A wie Alexander von Agoston bis Z wie Zombie. Jeden einzelnen teilnehmenden Künstler stellen wir in unserem NewsBlog ausführlicher vor.
Wir zeigen in dieser sehr speziellen Ausstellung wieder einmal Gemälde, Aquarelle, Zeichnungen und Fotografien in einem Format, das unsere Mütter und Väter als das Langspielplatten-Cover bezeichnet hätten und die sind ja per se Kunstwerke.

Group Exhibition
27th of November 2014 – 19th of January 2015

In keeping with tradition we are opening on the last Thursday of November the ‘30 x 30’ exhibition – in it’s 12th succession. In contrast to the previous years, the new presentation of the work allows showcasing a smaller collection of predominantly single artworks.

A multifaceted group of artists, from A such as Alexander von Agoston to Z such as Zombie, are presenting a diverse range of works. We will feature each of the partaking artists more detailed in our forthcoming news blog.
This specific exhibition showcases again oil and water paintings, drawings and photographs in a format, which our peers would have labelled as vinyl covers – art works in itself.
