1RWW, Galerie Loock, Berlin
 

 

curated by Friedrich Loock / 2022
 

 

1RWW – 1 Room, 1 Work, 1 Week –expands the exhibition space to include the dimension of time, thereby drawing attention to each individual work. From January through December 2022, a total of 12 female artists will be invited to freely interpret the exhibition’s title and concept for one month each. On a weekly rotation, a work will be displayed that references the previously shown works and engages in a dialogue with them. Thus, 1RWW is both a solo and a group exhibition.

1RWW begins in January with the work Domino by Susanne Schwieter, and additional artists will be announced month by month. This exhibition project unfolds over the course of a year and will be documented in a final publication in January 2023.

The idea for 1RWW traces back to the exhibition BILD-Malerei, which Friedrich Loock conceived in 1995 for the Galerie Wohnmaschine, a private gallery founded in 1988 in his East Berlin apartment. The focus there was on artists working in Berlin in the early 1990s who were discussing the concept of painting. In 1997, the exhibition BILD-Malerei was acquired by the Berlinische Galerie. 1RWW now expands the scope of contemporary painting from Japan through Europe to the United States.
