until 09.11. | #3987ARTatBerlin | Galerie Barbara Wien presents from 9. September 2023 the exhibition Endnote oblique, pink of the artist Ian Kiaer.
Ian Kiaer’s work draws upon utopian approaches to architecture, literature, philosophy, and art. His recent research centers around The Oblique Function, an architectural theory conceptualised and developed by architect Claude Parent (1923–2016) and cultural theorist and architect Paul Virilio (1932–2018). Parent and Virilio explored a new architectural and urban order that would encourage fluid, continuous movement and force the body to adapt to disequilibrium. The central concept of The Oblique Function involves tilting floors and walls to open up space rather than limiting and closing it, thereby breaking away from modernism and its orthogonal vocabulary.
Ian Kiaer (born 1971 in London, UK) currently lives and works in London and Oxford.
Opening: Friday, 8. September 2023, 6 pm – 9 pm
Exhibition dates: Saturday 9. September – Thursday, 9. November 2023
