Recommendation!!! When in Berlin, have a look at the exhibition “Dry Crust and Oceans of Liquid Matter” at Horse&Pony in Neukölln. Playing with themes of social revolution and creative process and volcano as their metaphore, the exhibition presents a number of wonderfully deceiving objects, which are terrible to transport at the same time 😋 There’s plaster pretending to be marble - this is an old trick. There is a burning candle floating on water. But also ceramics pretending to be wood and hand-painted porcelain looking like granite bricks. On top of that, the unique interior of the gallery itself gives you some uncertainty about what belongs there for good and what is exhibited art. Enjoy!

Finally a long text about art handling in a renowned newspaper. They even share my point of view on the unjust invisibility of art movers! Still - art handling is done in safety shoes and robust trousers, not in suits 🙄

The long read: What happens when a forklift goes through your Picasso?

Ultra-rich collectors who run their own museums will benefit from the change

Hits the nail on the head 🤓although "Konstruktivismus" is actually more "Neoplastizismus" I guess 😋

Looks like art logistics and maths should be obligatory in the course of art history studies... 🤔

The world-famous quinquennial almost went bust after Adam Szymczyk's ambitious two-city exhibition inflated costs.

Despite media's efforts to keep the unfortunate art handling agent anonymous, the millieu knows exactly who is meant. Not us :)
Bad luck is bad luck, BUT... hire character, train skill !
Once again cheers to my trustworthy art movers!
