Arndt & Partner // Berlin
Arndt & Partner has the honour to announce the participations of our gallery artists Sophie Calle and Nedko Solakov at the 52nd Venice Biennale taking place from 10 June through 21 November 2007.
Sophie Calle is representing France at the French Pavilion with her new work Take care of yourself consisting of a series of video and photo-portraits. The starting point for this project was an episode from her personal life – a relationship broken up by email. Calle asked 107 women, whom she had chosen according to their line of work – some famous, some not – to interpret the letter in their professional capacity. Sophie Calle’s book titled Take care of yourself will be published on 1 June 2007 accompanying the exhibition.
Furthermore, Sophie Calle as well as Nedko Solakov are participating in the group show Think with the Senses – Feel with the Mind. Art in the Present Tense curated by Robert Storr at the Arsenale and the Italian Pavilion at the Giardini.
Nedko Solakov’s installation Discussion (Property), 2007, deals with a decade-long dispute between Russia and Bulgaria. The artist’s closer examination of this dispute, which seems to be a relict from the socialist era, was provoked by Russia’s claim that Bulgaria’s continued manufacturing and selling of the AK-47 assault rifle was illegal.
His work is also included in a special issue of Printed Project, which will be launched at the Irish Pavilion on 7 June 2007.
Please contact the gallery for further information.

HuskMitNavn – RememberMyName (1975)
—– Works with street art, paintings, drawings and graphics —-
HuskMitNavn has marked his name both in Denmark and internationally by his controversial, humorous and political street art. His characteristic figures and comments are spread all over Europe and covers a wide area from graffiti in public space, illustrations for international magazines and newspapers into established settings as galleries and building adornnments.
By humorous reflections upon everyday life and politics, the art from HuskMitNavn involves society discourses. In a very personal style he comments on absurdities by stolid comments that give ‘food for thought’. Subjects like nationality or integration gets a completely new meaning.

The title “E Pluribus Venom” which translates “Out of many, poison” is
derived from “E Pluribus Unum” (out of many, one) an early motto adopted by
the U.S. Government which appears on U.S. coins and dollar bills. In the
opinion of artist Shepard Fairey, many becoming one, or a loss of power and
influence of the individual in favor of homogeny is a symptom of a society
in decline. “E Pluribus Venom” could be interpreted as saying both that
there is poison in the American system, and that many individuals are
motivated by venom and anger toward this system. “E Pluribus Venom” is
comprised of artworks designed to question the symbols and methods of the
American machine and American dream and also celebrate those who oppose
blind nationalism and war. Some of Fairey’s works use currency motifs or a
Norman Rockwell aesthetic to employ the graphic language of the subjects
they critique. Other works use a blend of Art Nouveau, hippie, and
revolutionary propaganda styles to celebrate
subjects advocating peace. The art addresses monolithic institutional power
and authority and the role of counter culture and independent individuals to
question the dominant paradigm. Shepard Fairey’s new body of work contains
politically-charged paint, screen print, stencil, and collage mixed media
pieces which use metaphor, humor, and seductive decorative elements to
deliver provocative but beautiful results. These works blur the perceived
barriers between propaganda and escapist decoration, political
responsibility and humor with the intent of stimulating both viscerally and intellectually.
