From the photo series MOBILE CHURCHES (2013-2017). The picture shows a blocked view of Biserica Sfântul Ștefan "Cuibu' cu Barză" (Saint Stephen Church “Stork's Nest”), Bucharest, 2015. It is the last of the seven churches displaced on rails under Ceaușescu, and also the one which has been moved on the shortest distance of ridiculous 14 meters. The imminent collapse of the regime one year later, reveals the complete nonsense and the tragicomedy of this chapter of history.

About
Solo-positions include iconic paper works by Ali Kaaf, a newly commissioned "Impuls" work by Silvina Der-Meguerditchian, a current edition of the celebrated photo-series Mobile Churches by Anton Roland Laub, and a performative house of study - the world premiere of House of Taswir's “Echo Chamber Istanbul.”
The "Echo Chamber Istanbul" is a walkthrough installation inspired by the archive of Istanbul curator Beral Madra with hundreds of digital mural fragments, showing works of art, texts, poetic fragments, sound-and-motion clips, letters, and other items referring to BM CAC, one of the most important archives of contemporary art in the entire region.
"FOURFOLD. Positions from Berlin” presents a visual critique of uniform identities, both serious and ironic, poetic and inquisitive.
We will be thrilled to welcome you in the beautiful city of Split in June. The artists will be present.
With the kind support of Hrvatska Udruga Likovnih Umjetnika - Split HULU, the Croatian Ministry of Culture, Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen (ifa), BM CAC, Goethe Institut Zagreb, Kulturakademie Tarabya / Tarabya Kültür Akademisi.
