Modelling Life & The Wet Wing
Discover the stories behind the exhibitions Modelling Life and The Wet Wing with curator Kevin Gallagher.
The ultimate hidden truth of the world is that it is something that we make, and could just as easily make differently (David Graeber)
The optimism of American anthropologist David Graeber served as a guiding principle for Modelling Life. The exhibition shows how we make plans, shape dreams and build models – not only in architecture and art, but also in our daily lives. Kevin takes you on a journey through mysterious dream houses without stairs, unusual toy cars, kitchen appliances as costumes and more.
Painting on silk, sculpting pink marble, ceramic pots in which you can recognise snails and human torsos… With The Wet Wing, the artist duo Daniel Dewar & Grégory Gicquel present the finest examples of craftsmanship. Together with curator Kevin Gallagher, you will discover the vibrant underwater world and the stories behind it.
