PALATTI LEIPZIG
ÜBER DEN INHALT DER ZEIT

Aimé Pastorino (AR), Gachi Rosati (AR), Aurelio Kopainig (CH), Julia Mensch (AR), Javier Barrio y Lipperheide (AR) und Sara Pape García (NL/ES)

Exhibition: January 13-29, 2012
Opening: Thursday, January 12, 2012, 8pm

Kunstverein Leipzig, Kolonnadenstr. 6, 04109 Leipzig
Opening hours: THU-FRI 4pm-8pm, SAT-SUN 2pm-6pm and by agreement.

In the exhibition ON THE CONTENT OF TIME, the six Palatti-artists present their new projects, which have been developed during their time of residency in Leipzig. With the presentation at Kunstverein, the members of the group will end their stay at the artist residency BLUMEN which has been lasting three months.

Painting and video, as well as installation and sculpture convey the different artistic positions which derive from a common field of interest: the relation to the city and its cultural, historical and social phenomena is the specific starting point for the historically and reflexively coined works. An exhibition develops, in which common knowledge feedbacks personal biographies. Thus it enables an individual (and new) experience. The artists’ explicit outsider view –also on suppressed history and stories, especially from not so long ago- make the spectator contemplate on present and future and lets time light up in all its dimensions and meanings.

Thus, Gachi Rosati questions the possibilities of artistic self-conception under the art market’s conditions, while Julia Mensch pursues subjectively experienced history of residents and participants of the former Iskra-museum. Aimé Pastorino turns old utilized boxes of the GDR into wooden sculptures and thus reconstructs different influences of design and makes it usable for contemporary patterns. In a loose adaption, Javier Barrio y Lipperheide interlocks Robert Louis Stevenson’s Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde with his research on the scientist and psychologist Wilhelm Wundt from Leipzig and with his own familiy’s past, which has its roots in North Rhine-Westphalia. Aurelio Kopainig’s Crop Culture raises issues on the relation between industrial farming, biotechnology, genetic engineering and global expansion of the agribusiness in contrast to familiar farming. On the contrary, Sara Pape García investigates the composition of stone out of which monuments in Leipzig –such as the Völkerschlachtdenkmal- are built and thus approaches processes and changes of the world that surrounds us.

November 2011: Palatti arrived in LEIPZIG for a new project at the artist residency Blumen.
