project between Peninsula Gallery and the Berlin project space
nationalmuseum. It presents a number of artists allied to
nationalmuseum paired with New York artists selected by the
curatorial team of Peninsula.
Exhibition details 130 artists from across the world give personal
artistic responses to globalisation to create a unique ‘networked
exhibition’ in which all contributions are made by email. Artist
Brigit Jensen asks her diverse international network of visual
artists to respond to the latest developments in a globalised
world. What position do they take and how do the changes and
attendant social tensions and conflicts influence their work? How
do they position themselves in relation to the transformations of
our society in recent years, and their various local impacts?
Birgit Jensen is a Düsseldorf-based artist.
.......(DYS)-TROPISM is a collective exhibition including works by
Sarah Abu Abdallah (b.1990, Saudi Arabia), Juliette Bonneviot

Timeline show
As part of Armory Arts Week, we invite you to view artists working
in open studios, visit the EFA Project Space, and take a tour of
EFA's Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop on Tuesday, March 6th,
2018 from 5:00 - 9:00 pm. EFA Studio Member Artists work in a wide
range of media and artistic sensibilities, creating a vibrant and
diverse community of peers under one roof. Artists on floors 3 - 10
will welcome guests to explore and interact with their artwork.
Funded by the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, NYC
Department of Aging, in partnership with the NYC Council and the
Materials for the Arts
This exhibition is the result of the network project Flugblätter
for which the artist Birgit Jensen invited 130 (inter)national
participants. She asked them how they, as visual artists, respond
to the latest developments in a globalised world. What position do
they take and how do the changes and attendant social tensions and
conflicts influence their work? Each expression of the 130 artists
reflects another aspect of our time - be it philosophical, social,
political or ecological. It shows that the artistic thinking is
rooted in a specific social experience.
......Created as an instinctive reaction of the current crises,
(DYS)-TROPISM highlights the dystopian order we are currently
living in through the practices of artists from various origins.
The exhibition aims to engage in a dialog on culture, politics,
environmental issues and technologies, featuring works by Sarah Abu
Abdallah, Juliette Bonneviot, Chris Dorland, Celine Gillain, Peter
Nagy, !Mediengruppe Bitnik, Jaakko Pallasvuo, Adriana Ramic, Ariane
Schick and Barbara Westermann.

Barbara Westermann is a sculptor and installation artist. Her
sculptures, prints, and drawings are minimalist and conceptual,
with an emphasis on social sculpture, urban planning, geometry,
geophysical mapping, and music. She utilizes site-specific work
that involves sculpture, prints, architecture, and engineering, and
uses sculpture to ‘embody’ utilitarian objects.
.......At the center of the original Timeline installation was a
dramatic red construction, an artifact from a demonstration in DC:
a maritime navigation buoy.
.........and atmosphere of an airport lounge in an installation by
Barbara Westermann. Like so many other artworks here, they zoom in
on things that we look at but rarely see.
This exhibition takes an international, intergenerational and
interdisciplinary look at the way artists comment on, perceive and
provoke political action. From the October Revolution through
Tiananmen Square to the Arab Spring, the artists in this show have
appropriated primary and secondary source material from film,
photographs and newspapers in order to create compelling visual
images. They have explored a variety of methodologies including
painting, collage, printmaking, photography, excision, and digital
manipulation. Come see this exhibition and join in the dialogue
these prominent artists have initiated. Artists: Shanti Grumbine,
Tatiana Istomina, Anna Elise Johnson, Joyce Kozloff, Dread Scott,
Robin Tewes, Barbara Westermann. A display of agitprop graphic art
In the Black and White Gallery East complements the exhibition.

In multi-media installations, prints and sculptures, I build a
place for observation, and create a space for inner contemplation
about architecture, urban space, and the political relevance of
making artwork in a globalized world.

Barbara Westermann's Observatory is a cluster of architectonic
objects that suggest the ability to transmit and receive worldly
and otherworldly music and/or information. They are objects of and
for meditation and introspection. The sculptures reflect and absorb
light and sound like a tree's leaves; a conceptual, aural
photosynthesis. All the "satellites" are sculptures made from molds
of satellite dishes, molded and hewn away from a prefabricated
look. The installation underscores relationships between exterior
and interior architecture, public and private arenas.
