A Journey Through Imagination and Representation
Galeria Azur Berlin is proud to present “Session 2 – Fables and Simulacra,” an exhibition opening on March 7 that promises to be a profound exploration of the myriad ways in which imagination and representation converge and diverge. This exhibition is a tribute to the power of mythical narratives and simulated realities, featuring a diverse and international roster of artists whose works span the spectrum from figurative to abstract.
This year, Galeria Azur draws thematic inspiration from the influential Bauhaus movement, reflecting on its enduring legacy and its profound impact on Berlin’s artistic landscape. “Session 2 – Fables and Simulacra” weaves this historical reverence into a contemporary exploration of storytelling, myth-making, and the construction of reality through artistic expression.
The exhibition showcases how artists today continue to draw from and reinterpret the Bauhaus ethos of combining form and function, blending traditional techniques with new technologies and materials to create works that challenge our perceptions and engage our imaginations. Through a variety of mediums, the artists participating in this exhibition offer their unique perspectives on the world, creating a dialogue between the past and the present, the real and the imagined.
From the abstract to the figurative, each piece in “Session 2 – Fables and Simulacra” serves as a portal to a different universe, inviting viewers to dive into the depths of imagination and representation. The exhibition is an homage to the storytelling tradition, reimagined through the lens of contemporary art. It invites us to ponder the myths and simulacra that shape our understanding of the world, urging us to consider how these narratives influence our perception of reality.
As we celebrate the rich artistic heritage of Berlin and the visionary principles of the Bauhaus, “Session 2 – Fables and Simulacra” stands as a testament to the enduring power of art to inspire, challenge, and transform. We invite you to join us at Galeria Azur Berlin to embark on this immersive journey through the fables and simulacra that continue to captivate and intrigue us all.
