Deborah Schamoni marks the gallery’s tenth anniversary with Fleshing Out The Ghost, a group exhibition curated in collaboration with Nikola Dietrich.Works in the exhibition by Lotus L. Kang, Jumana Manna, and Anh Trần draw attention to multilayered, and ongoing constructions of gender, identity, and the sources of inequality. They document how processes of history and personal memory influence and act upon bodies and collective memory. Reflected in them are transformations within cultural narratives, particularly those that allow us to examine contradictory histories of gender, colonial legacies, and experiences of displacement. Each of the works on view – Lotus L. Kang’s photographic installation and objects, Jumana Manna’s sculptural pieces and collages, and Anh Trần’s paintings – emphasizes the sensitivity of material relative to the body and the forces that continue to shape and affect it.

Zum zehnjährigen Galeriejubiläum zeigt Deborah Schamoni die Gruppenausstellung Fleshing Out The Ghost, die in Zusammenarbeit mit Nikola Dietrich kuratiert wurde.Die Werke der Ausstellung von Lotus L. Kang, Jumana Manna und Anh Trần lenken unsere Aufmerksamkeit auf die komplexen und kontinuierlichen Konstruktionen von Geschlecht, Identität und Ursprünge von Ungleichheit. Sie verzeichnen, wie Prozesse von Geschichte und persönlicher Erinnerung auf Körper und kollektive Gedächtnisse einwirken. In ihnen spiegeln sich Transformationen innerhalb kultureller Narrative wider, die uns die gegensätzliche Geschichte von Geschlecht, kolonialem Erbe und Erfahrungen von Vertreibung betrachten lassen. Sowohl die Fotoinstallation und Objekte von Lotus L. Kang, die skulpturalen Arbeiten und Collagen von Jumana Manna, als auch die Malerei von Anh Trần betonen die Sensibilität des Materials in Bezug auf den Körper und die Kräfte, die ihn ständig formen.
