Das Prinzip Hoffnung Die metaphysische

Malerei von Amir Reza Modabberi

Friends of Gelbe Tonne,

It is an honour to invite you to our next outstanding

exhibition entitled Das Prinzip Hoffnung Die metaphysische

Malerei von Amir Reza Modabberi. Iranian artist with more

than 40 years of experience whose current interest lies in

the metaphysical encounter between nature and the divine:

...From time immemorial the eye of the Creator has blinked

at us in the face of nature. Here the idea still took

precedence over reality. In this perspective, the spirit

descends from heaven and manifests itself as a thought in

our brain. All our actions are prepared in this way, we

follow such inspiration in our earthly activities.

 

It seems to spring from the infinity of cosmic expanses.

So, we move both from above and below our feet on the

ground of nature. In this way we are subjects, nature

is what is above us - the object. Nature, as an objective,

jumps out at us from the image, seemingly as pure matter.

No human being to be seen. 

                                       Jürgen Nafti

How to create a seed

Seed: A thing that is the cause or origin from which others

arise. RAE

From time immemorial, the seed has given us the fruit, but also

the experience and understanding of the process of life. A seed

is the potential and project of being, without which neither we

nor much of the world around us would exist.

The seeds are there, available to us, either outside or within

us, but what happens when we set out to create a seed?

In creating a seed, what is created is the act of creating

itself.

The fruit that germinates can be of many kinds: cultural,

scientific, political, etc.

Today, more than ever, we need creative power, political

imagination, and ideas to imagine new scenarios that allow us

to build alternative realities. Against hegemonic models and

against the polarizing inertia of today's world. The invitation

is to germinate.

 

Gelbe Tonne invites Berlin artists to create a seed.

 

Until 25 April we are accepting submissions for the group

exhibition "How to create a seed". All formats and media

that fit into a space 1m wide and 2m high are allowed.

Submit now!

 

Bastardo, Pepe Rovano Film

Dear audience,

At Gelbe Tonne we are honoured to announce the screening

of Pepe Rovano's acclaimed film "Bastardo".

The documentary tells the story of the director

Pepe Rovano) who at the age of 35 discovers the true identity

of his father, encountering doubts and disappointments that

lead him on a path of reparation and memory.

This is the first time that this documentary will be screened

in Berlin. In addition to the screening, there will be a video

call with the director.

This meeting is of great relevance at a time when the strategies

of memory and reparation, as well as the discussion on the

prevention of genocidal acts, are part of the current

situation and its urgencies.

The meeting will take place on Wednesday 27.03 at 19:00hrs

 

in Gelbe Tonne (Otawistr 9, 13351 Berlin).

Equivoc-arte

In this laboratory we invite participants to explore ways of

freeing their artistic expression in drawing and painting.

adulthood, freeing ourselves from limiting social conventions...

In other words, we invite you to play!

The laborarory will take place on Saturday 13 April at 11:30

at Gelbe Tonne. Otawistr 9, Wedding.

Book your place (limited availability)
