We are pleased to host a gathering at Between Bridges on the occasion of Thea Djordjadze’s new publication. The artist, Hamburger Kunsthalle, and DISTANZ warmly invite you to join them for this celebration.

Thea Djordjadze’s (b. Tbilisi, 1971; lives and works in Berlin) experimental artistic practice yields sculptures and environments which emerge from the artist’s acute engagement with the latent energies of a space, using a wide variety of materials in assemblages of singular poetry. Djordjadze’s aesthetic vocabulary reprises forms and ideas from literature, design, painting, architecture—particularly, but not limited to Modernism. Her works respond to the particular site, sometimes reflexively, sometimes as an immediate reaction to the given conditions.

Thea Djordjadze created a new body of work for Hamburger Kunsthalle that offers the viewers a spatial, physical, and psychological experience. The comprehensive publication extends Djordjadze’s exhibition with a wide-ranging archival section on the artist’s production and exhibition history. With essays by Mihaela Chiriac, Tinatin Gurgenidze, and Andrew Maerkle, poetry by Vazha Pshavela, and a curatorial afterword by Corinne Diserens.
