CAA Academy // Visit of the exhibitions Rebecca Raue / Nasan Tur

Visit of the manor house Steglitz and the Schwartzsche Villa. Rebecca Raues exhibition "Notes on the Verge of Time" shows works which take a close look at conventional images of femininity and masculinity, using paintings of the past to show a forward-looking vision of equality. "I like the position on the edge, because it suggests an "Inbetween" - one foot here, one foot there - as well as a connecting element. It is thrilling to be balancing at that position and to be seeing how I can retain and communicate the great variety. I would say, the edge is a good position for art." (Rebecca Raue) In his video installation "Back and Forth", Nasan Tur examines the vulnerability of institutions which are higly important in a democracy - journalism and politics - and investigates the role of political participation and the defence of basic democratic values. "This process is a back and forth between the disappearance and restoration of something, between forgetting and remembering. What is important? Which decisions do I make in my life - and who do I want to be?
