carlier | gebauer is pleased to announce the Brazilian-German artist Janaina Tschäpe’s fourth solo exhibition with the gallery, opening Friday, 12 June from 6-9pm. The exhibition will include a new large-scale work on canvas, a series of large-scale watercolors entitled Fernweh, a video by the same name, and a series of watercolors. 

Liquids, biomorphism, memory, hybridity, and the plasticity of subjectivity: these associations offer only a brief introduction into the artist‘s layered conceptual lexicon. Tschäpe’s work explores landscape as a site of morphological transformation. The natural world forms the stage in which abstract primordial scenes of longing, sex, and death play out, whether in painting, sculpture, photographs, or on the screen.
