After its presentation at KINDL – Zentrum für zeitgenössische Kunst in Berlin, Erik Schmidt’s mid-career survey exhibition The Rise and Fall of Erik Schmidt travels to EACC Castelló as its second venue.
The exhibition offers a comprehensive insight into Erik Schmidt’s artistic practice, bringing together not only his acclaimed paintings but also key works in video, performance, photography, collage, and drawing. At EACC Castelló, visitors can experience the breadth and complexity of Schmidt’s oeuvre, which has evolved over four decades, within a new spatial and cultural context.
Curated by Yara Sonseca Mas.
