Zuzanna Czebatul at Sans Titre

We are happy to announce that Zuzanna Czebatul’s solo exhibition „The Lunatic Fringe” at Sans Titre is on view from 14.10 to 2.12.2023.

 

„For her second exhibition at Sans Titre, Zuzanna Czebatul presents a new series of monumental tapestries and floor-based sculptural pieces […] Czebatul dips once more into art history to capture our present conditions. The images represented on each textile work are blown-up details of ancient tapestries, dating from the Middle Ages to roughly AD 1600. These close-ups are concentrated on the lower parts of the compositions, at times allowing a glimpse of a foot, a fetishist motif with a long iconographic tradition. For Czebatul, who previously reproduced the foot of the sculpture of the Bismarck national monument in Berlin’s Tiergarten, the foot is a symbol of patriarchal power and systemic violence. It’s also an image of mobility, not only that of bodies, but also that of cultures, knowledges, and crafts, as exemplified by the art of tapestry, a medium that circulated throughout Europe and beyond, hybridizing along the way”  - Devrim Bayar, Senior Curator at KANAL- Centre Pompidou
