Art in the dialogue: exhibition 'simultaneously' in Berlin-Hohenschönhausen

On Wednesday, June 11, 2024, Galerie 100 in Berlin-Hohenschönhausen will open an exciting exhibition entitled "At the same time". The opening begins at 7 p.m. and admission is free. Works by a total of five artists, including four artists-Maria Luise Faber, Karin Gralki, Sigrid Herdam and Nadine Nelken-are shown-and the artist Uwe-Jens Raddatz. Everyone involved studied at the renowned art college in Berlin-Weißensee in the 1980s, under the guidance of professors Jo Jastram and Baldur Schönfelder.

The exhibition offers a wide range of artistic forms of expression. Painting, graphics, drawings, collages, sculptures, objects and digital animations are shown. This diversity reflects the individual approaches and styles of the artists who connect to their artistic roots.

In the work of Maria Luise Faber, the focus is on ceramic sculptures that deal with natural structures.
