Installation view at Çanakkale Art Walk, Kunsthalle Osnabrück
HOMELAND is second edition of Çanakkale Art Walk will take place between June 6th and August 6th 2017 and is conceived as a cooperation between Mahal
(organisers of the Çanakkale Biennale), BBK-Osnabrück, Felix-Nussbaum-Haus, Gesellschaft für zeitgenössische Kunst and Kunsthalle Osnabrück.
The first exhibition organised in the framework of Çanakkale Art Walk took place in 2014, as collaboration between BBK-Osnabrück and Cabinin Çanakkale Biennial Initiative, and saw works exhibited in the Kunst-Quartier as well as various adjacent ateliers tuned into exhibition spaces for the occasion. For its second edition guest-curator Christian Oxenius will select 35 works, 10 of these were originally included in the 5th Çanakkale Biennale, planned for 2016 and sadly cancelled.
The works are selected to explore the theme of “Homeland” and will be exhibited in the BBK’s Kunst-Quartier, the Felix-Nussbaum-Haus, the Kunsthalle Osnabrück, and the Kunstraum hase29.
