Zuzanne Bartoszek

In Film Noir, Bartoszek directs her gaze to the often overlooked characters and spaces on the margins of love stories: the friends on the third wheel, the widows, the quietly grieving, the havens (for lovers and loners).

Sebastian Klemm and Silvia Bonsiepe founded KLEMM’S as a gallery for contemporary art in 2007. They represent artists from different generations, cultural backgrounds and media whose work is linked by their shared interests in the transformation of experienced reality and distinctive critique of contemporary social currents. Klemm’s supports positions and artists who work to overcome limitations in content and form, bringing new approaches to the interrogation of their medium. It is important for Klemm’s to support and accompany the artists through the early stages of their development and steadily foster their development and careers in a progressive international context. In conceiving the program, it is essential for them to offer the artists a platform that allows their conceptual approaches to unfold individually and also to reflect upon and enhance each other. Alongside solo exhibitions of represented artists, Klemm’s hosts carte-blanche projects by invited curators, artist-curated exhibitions and regular film screenings or artist talks. In an effort to promote and deepen the critical dialogue about the development of artistic expression, Klemm’s works closely with the artists to actively document their projects and new work with unique publications and artists’ books. ...
