About
In this exhibition Axel Obiger, working in collaboration with PAPER will draw together the practices of 16 artists working in both Berlin and the United Kingdom. Each artist attempts to disrupt the notion of still life, and reinterpret this genre of art. Still Life was once considered the lowest genre of art, and yet in the composition of objects, artists can imply a great deal. The hardship of daily life, the fragility of human existence and the threat of death. These themes permeate through the genre where they remain ever present to this day, simmering below the surface.
PAPER is an artist-led gallery based in Manchester and represents a range of emerging and mid-career artists whose practice is based around the medium of paper.
Axel Obiger not only creates a contact point for Berlin-based and international artistic positions, but also a place for intensive artistic discussion.
