DEEDS CALENDAR: I know that I can double myself. Gisèle Vienne and the dolls of the avant-garde – Georg Kolbe Museum | until 09.03.2025
The Georg Kolbe Museum is delighted to present the artistic work of the Austrian-French artist, choreographer and director GISÈLE VIENNE (*1976) for the first time in Berlin in fall 2024. The exhibition is taking place as part of Berlin Art Week and is part of a joint project with Haus am Waldsee, which is showing Gisèle Vienne’s work as a solo exhibition, and Sophiensælen, who are performing her play Crowd. In the exhibition at the Georg Kolbe Museum, Gisèle Vienne’s contemporary works enter into a cross-temporal dialog with historical works by artists of the European avant-garde – such as CLAUDE CAHUN, HANNAH HÖCH, SOPHIE TAEUBER-ARP and EMMY HENNINGS, as well as lesser-known artists such as HERMINE MOOS, MARIA JAREMA and MILADA MAREŠOVÁ. This encounter provides a unique insight into the multifaceted use of dolls in modern and contemporary art and addresses themes such as emancipation and social criticism.
