Pavel Pepperstein, Abstract Memories

Kewenig is delighted to announce the opening of the solo exhibition “Abstract Memories” featuring works by Pavel Pepperstein (born in Moscow in 1966) in its Berlin gallery. In an interplay of text and image, the sensitive poet and virtuoso draughtsman Pepperstein creates imaginary utopias and surreal narratives. The exhibition will concentrate on works on canvas and paper of the years 2014 and 2015, supplemented by one sculpture. A number of these works were shown last year in the artist’s solo exhibition “The Cold Center of the Sun” at the Musée d’Art Moderne et Contemporain in Saint-Étienne and the Multimedia Art Museum in Moscow. After the Berlin venue, the works will be presented at the PLATO – platform for contemporary art in Ostrava in the Czech Republic.
