LOHAUS SOMINSKY

The personal dimension stood at the center of the German Pavilion — an impressive contribution by Sung Tieu, intertwining individual memories and societal structures in a deeply affecting way. Through sound, space, and fragments of history, a quiet, almost intimate atmosphere emerges that lingers long afterward. It is precisely this connection between personal experience and collective memory that makes the pavilion so powerful and moving. The collateral events of the Biennale di Venezia have grown enormously in recent years — both in number and in visibility — unfolding across some of the most beautiful locations in Venice: Take your time! @BiennaleVenezia @GermanPavilion @sungtieu @VeniceBiennale @kathleen.reinhardt @henrikenaumann

Ilit Azoulay - FUTURE ANCESTORS Alicja Kwade @alicjakwade - SILENT MATTER Opening May 15 at 6 PM On View until June 27 LOHAUS SOMINSKY @lohaussominsky , Ottostraße 10, Munich LOHAUS SOMINSKY presents in cooperation with Kamel Mennour Gallery Paris an exhibition of two femaleartists – Ilit Azoulay and Alicja Kwade - as a contribution to this year’sedition of „Various Others“ in Munich. Both artists areresearchers using their artistic practice as a mode of investigation –prioritizing conceptual depth and knowledge-making to find new ways ofunderstanding the world. Under the title „FutureAncestors“ Ilit Azoulay (born 1972 in Jaffa, Israel) assembles high-resolutionimages from public archives, including ancient artifacts and photographs fromNASA. Objects up to 7,000 years old encounter cosmic phenomena that havetraveled vast distances through space, forming a shared visual heritage. Ilit‘swork explores time as layered and interwoven and as a structure, in whichknowledge circulates across parallel worlds. Alicja Kwade (born 1979 in Katowice, Poland) developedher installation „Silent Matter“ in Mexico, fascinated by the vulcanic materialobsidian because of its historic relevance. She places two desk lamps upagainst the polished rock to create a luminous depiction of the universe with celestialbodies surrounded by the dark vacuum of space. @sofiasominski @adigura

Jieun Park and Saskia Hendy Wednesday, April 29 at 6 PM Ottostraße 10, 80333 Munich We warmly invite you to an artist talk with Jieun Park and Saskia Hendy as part of the exhibition WHERE AT HOME. Jieun Park, a South Korean artist based in Munich, works at the intersection of painting, drawing, and performance. In her practice, she explores memory, identity, and corporeality through processes of calligraphic writing. Her performances translate personal narratives into physical gestures, in which text becomes both visible and inaccessible, often remaining only as a delicate trace. Saskia Hendy, an art historian specializing in modern and contemporary Korean art, contributes well-founded cultural insights to the conversation through her close collaboration with artists and institutions in Korea. WHERE AT HOME - JIEUN PARK and HUANG LI-YING - on view until 5th May @jieunpark.h @saskiahendy.co

Where at Home… The exhibition also features works by Huang Li-Ying, whose graphite drawings explore light, perception, and spatial illusion. Through subtle tonal shifts and layered surfaces, his compositions change with the viewer’s movement and surrounding light. Inspired by organic forms, his works exist between presence and disappearance, where light becomes the subject and perception shapes space. #lohaussominsky #exhibition #munichart #artreels

Where at Home… The exhibition features works by Jieun Park, which explore the idea of home and belonging. Her landscapes reflect personal experiences, perceptions, and the ways we connect with the world around us. #lohaussominsky #exhibition #munichart #artreels

Thursday, April 2nd | 6 PM - 8 PM 62 White Street 10013, New York City Join us for an Artist Talk with Matthias Bitzer at our New York gallery, on the occasion of his first exhibition with the gallery. The conversation will explore Bitzer’s practice, tracing its evolution over the years and offering insight into the ideas, processes, and references that shape his work. Expanding on themes of perception, participation, and transformation, the talk will deepen the experience of the works on view and the ways in which they activate the role of the viewer.

Thursday, March 26 | 6 PM - 8 PM 62 White Street 10013, New York City Join us tomorrow for an evening of letters and poetry at our New York Gallery. This gathering is inspired by Vera Molnar’s series Lettres à ma mère, created between 1981 and 1990. For these works, the artist developed a computer program to simulate her mother’s handwriting. For the evening, Jessica Cole will read poetry, accompanied by a reading of a letter to Vera Molnar by Sofia Sominsky. Every beginning is only a sequel, after all, and the book of events is always open halfway through. Part of a poem by Wisława Szymborska.

Opening next week | An Atom Drip from Your Lip by Matthias Bitzer Tuesday, March 31st, from 6 PM to 8 PM 62 White Street 10013, New York City NY Join us for the opening of our new exhibition, Atomic Drip from Your Lip, marking the first solo show with the gallery by German artist Matthias Bitzer. What can I know? What should I do? What may I hope? What is the human being? — Immanuel Kant The works of Matthias Bitzer unfold like a visual puzzle: only from a distance do the individual, uniformly formatted artworks come together to form a larger whole. Spread across the wall like an explosion, they initially appear overwhelming, yet at the same time invite the viewer to come closer to read, to decipher, to understand. After the first impression comes the attempt to decode the individual works, to read them. One searches for a beginning or a point of departure within the installation, across its entire surface. Are these memories? Quotations? Observations of current events? Or even historical events that have imprinted themselves on the collective memory? A bit of everything.

It was a pleasure to listen to the 15-minute talk by Johanna Calle yesterday evening as part of the exhibition “Fascination Paper” at the Albertina Museum! The Colombian artist Johanna Calle shows how versatile and powerful paper can be—through text, structure, and delicate details. Her works explore language, memory, and social themes, inviting you to look closely. JOHANNA CALLE Perímetros (Ceiba) 2013/4 Typescript on old notarial paper In her series Perímetros (perimeter, boundary), Johanna Calle alludes to the mass expropriations and expulsions in her home country Columbia. Over eight million people have been and continue to be affected, mostly small farmers and Indigenous groups who have been and continue to be deprived of their land. As evidence of ownership, the law providing for compensation, which was passed in 2011, also recognizes so-called „witness trees“ as a proof. Here Calle presents a tropical Ceiba, a boundary marker and meeting place, composed of typewritten legal texts on notary reg-isters: the work makes reference to countless fates and lost property rights. #Albertina #JohannaCalle #ralphgleis #FascinationPaper #ViennaArt
