Final days
Exhibition “Luc Tuymans – Edith Clever” ends on Sunday, 26 November 2023
Finissage with films by Hans-Jürgen Syberberg, reading with Edith Clever and guided tours with the curator on the last exhibition day
Akademie der Künste, Pariser Platz
The Akademie der Künste is showing the exhibition “Luc Tuymans – Edith Clever” until Sunday, 26 November at its Pariser Platz location. The exhibition marks the prominent start of a new series organised by the Visuals Arts Section of the Akademie der Künste that juxtaposes works by Akademie members from various artistic disciplines with one another. The Belgian painter and curator Luc Tuymans – who with his distinct figurative style assumes a central position in the art scene – invited the German actress and director Edith Clever, whose roles portraying strong women have made her an iconic figure of the stage, to be his counterpart in the exhibition.
At the exhibition finissage on Sunday, 26 November Filmscreenings, screenings of Hans-Jürgen Syberberg’s legendary film adaptations of the Kleist plays Marquise of O... and Penthesilea with Edith Clever will be shown at 11 am and 3 pm. At 12 pm in the exhibition, Edith Clever will read from a text montage compiled for this occasion by Botho Strauss from his latest book, Nicht mehr. Mehr nicht. Chiffren für sie (Carl Hanser Verlag, Munich, 2021).
At 1 pm and 5 pm, curator tours will be given by Angela Lammert.
With the kind support of the Gesellschaft der Freunde der Akademie der Künste and the Karin und Uwe Hollweg Stiftung
