Intimacy (Radar Domes) by Friedrich Andreoni, on view from September 14 to October 12, 2024, at Galerie Met.
“In Intimacy (Radar Domes), two objects dance on a white pedestal, rotating around their own axis. They develop a synchronicity, from which they break away again after a short time. The objects originate from the roof of a ship, where they are used to scan and measure the surroundings above the water’s surface. Andreoni robs them of their actual function by breaking open their shell-like housings, unveiling their inner mechanism as a ballet mécanique.”
Text by Philipp Lange.

Manuel Tozzi
Self-Portrait as Centaur (1-5), 2023 – ongoing
Polylactide and bronze dust
15 x 20 x 20 cm
Unique
In the group of works Self-Portrait as Centaurus (1-5) (2023-ongoing), which, based on the mythological representation of the Centauri, deal with the exaggerations of the body defined as male, Tozzi uses the model of his own body to negotiate the interactions between physical strength and mental lethargy. Digitally reconstructing and modifying his own body, he questions the relationship between body and model and places his artistic practice in relation to classical ideas of sculpture.
The mythologized depiction of muscular, warlike male bodies, which are an expression of dynamism, strength but also violence, is motivically paralysed here. They crouch on the ground, appearing tired, introverted, even remorseful.

"The video is a split screen of two tracking shots recorded en route through East Berlin on February 4th, 1990, and again on February 4th, 2020. In 1990, I recorded a tracking shot from a car window using a VHS-camera. The drive began in the Friedrichstrasse in Berlin-Mitte and ended in the Dänenstraße in Berlin-Prenzlauer Berg.

The book "Left Right" by Cai Dongdong exhibited at the exhibition "1+1," curated by Qin Yan and Linhan Yu.
This work is composed two books. The one with an arrow pointing to the right on the cover contains photographs of women and men during the period of the Republic of China government , from 1912 to 1949. The one with an arrow pointing to the left presents those taken from 1949 to 1978 , since the founding of the People's Republic of China to the reform and the opening up of the country.
Drawing from his archive of 600’000 anonymous photographs from China, Dongdong pairs images that show women of similar age, facial structure, body posture and situation. Originally taken in private spaces for private purposes, the photographs take on a different meaning and become part of a conversation between two different historical eras of a country.
