MANIFESTATIONS OF A FAR NEARNESS Halle14 Leipzig Exhibition Opening 26th November 2015
As part of the 1000th year anniversary celebrations of the city of Leipzig, WERK are pleased to have worked in partnership with Glenn Howells Architects to support Halle14 (Leipzig) with their artist exchange project between the sister cities of Leipzig, Birmingham and Lyon. Selected artists from each city have inquisitively and provocatively examined the parallels, disparities and nuances of the three cities.
An exhibition at the Spinnerei galleries in Leipzig tilted ‘MANIFESTATIONS OF A FAR NEARNESS’ has been produced to conclude the project. The exhibition shows new works from the five artists involved in the project; Ian Richards, Sven Bergelt, Tom Castinel, Pale Male and Peggy Pehl. Their works deal with a range of subjects such as; urban renewal, life with HIV, the inventiveness concealed in everyday life and commonplace myths.
The show open on Thursday 26th November and runs till the 27th February 2016
