Summary
Der Katalog "Queensize" erscheint anlässlich der gleichnamigen Ausstellung, kuratiert von Nicola Graef und Wolfgang Schoppmann im me Collectors Room Berlin, die sich den weiblichen Positionen der Sammlung Olbricht widmet. Titelgebend ist das US-amerikanische Bettenformat, der den metaphorischen Rahmen für eine umfangreiche Darstellung der Frau aus der Perspektive internationaler, zeitgenössischer Künstlerinnen bildet. Gender Codes, pubertäre Rollenspiele, Männer- und Frauenfantasien sowie religiös legitimierte Gewalttaten akzentuieren die Aktualität und Brisanz von Fragestellungen über Geschlechterrollen in der "Kunst)Welt" des 21. Jahrhunderts. Im Zeitalter von Globalisierung, Digitalisierung und Flüchtlingsströmen stehen grundlegende Ungleichheiten weiterhin im Fokus. Exhibition: me Collectors Room / Stiftung Olbricht, Berlin, Germany (07.12.2015 - 30.08.2015).

  • "The thematic springboard for the exhibition is the name given to one of the largest bed formats, 'queen size'--a term that serves as a symbol for the key existential site of human experience, encompassing life and death, dreams and nightmares, birth and decay. Queensize explores the different states of consciousness in life and traces the human life cycle through birth, life, and death"--Preface, page 7.
