Kunstraum Richard Sorge

Located in a romantically crumbling historic Berlin brewery, host of many art spaces and music studios, Kunstraum Richard Sorge reaches a young, and international audience, but adventurous discerning art lovers as well.

Kunstraum Richard Sorge's large, white, yet still funky space is snugly hidden inside the building's Street-art covered walls. Its industrial, monastical charm creates a fitting ambiance to experience art.

Modeling itself after a - probably misguided - fantasy of egalitarian GDR exhibition practices, the art project space focuses its exhibitions on subversive crafts, club/vj culture, kinetic- and light art, queer/feminist art and subcultures.

Like the spy Richard Sorge, the art space's curators independently work from a marginal, yet cosmopolitan position to ultimately save the world.

Kunstraum Richard Sorge is proud to present the first large overview in Germany of Dutch artist Gert-Jan Akerboom’s ink drawings on paper. The artist executed several large murals, turning the presentation into an immersive experience.

Eschewing easily interpretable statements in his work, Gert-Jan Akerboom prefers ambiguous signals, dreamlike in nature; they can be interpreted in myriad ways, none of them right or wrong. His drawings take their energy from this unfixed, shifting view of reality, synthesizing precise observation and associative speculation about alternative possibilities.

Akerboom’s drawings are filled with the objects and themes that trigger his “dreamwatching” state of mind: Architecture, archeology, ruins, mystic or religious sites and ritual. Collaging the possibilities and impossibilities of these inspirati...[ Read all ]
