In an “Immersive Experience” imaginatively called Genius … Read more Genius daVinci – An Underwhelming Experience

Alicja Kwade’s ENTITAS: Sculptures to Question Reality

Trans-For-Men-8-Alicja-Kwade-2018-2

Berlin-based artist Alicja Kwade deconstructs time, space and the very fabric of the universe in her exhibition ENTITAS. Going up König Galerie’s concrete steps, surrounded with its cold walls and brutalist structure, always creates a kind of suspenseful build-up. The gallery was once St. Agnes, a church of the Christian faith; now, it operates as a … Read more Alicja Kwade’s ENTITAS: Sculptures to Question Reality
