The exhibition will be accompanied by a text by Frankfurt-based philosopher Angelica Horn.
Ebtisam AbdulAziz is a multidisciplinary artist and writer. She explores issues of identity and culture through installation, performance, mixed-media, painting and works on paper. Combining the scientific with the arbitrary, Abdulaziz draws from her training in science and mathematics, methodically exploring subconscious states and the expansiveness of daily life. She creates codes, systematic structures, graphic language, and performative gestures to force viewers to question their assumptions about rules in the natural and formulaic world. The intimate juxtapositions of these concepts center awareness on our surrounding environment and the issues that perplex and shape us.
About the artists:
Eva Weingärtner´s work is directly connected to her own person and feelings. In her videos and performances, she catches a particular state of mind. She engages the viewer by inviting him or her to identify with her self-confrontation. The central theme of her self-confrontations is the relationship with oneself and others. Since 2019 her work has extended to new forms of expression with a life-size doll, her double, and photo-documentations, which are then integrated into new installations. She develops a new style of abstract drawing, which she also adds to her work. Also, themes and actions are more complex and include her relationship to nature and places of belonging.
About the exhibition series:
In 2023 STUDIOSPACE Lange Strasse 31 is showing three dialogue-based short-term exhibitions. These exhibitions are subsequent to the exhibitions in 2022, 2020/21 and 2016/17.
Two artistic positions are shown in each case. As in a compartment, these "foreign" works meet for a limited time, enter into a dialogue, observe each other benevolently or reject each other. The juxtapositions are only be shown for one evening.
