Flawless at Strychnin Gallery

Sheer beauty and pure elegance will once again find its way into Strychnin Gallery. After last year’s overwhelming success and countless enthusiastic responses we are now proud to announce that the dolls will be coming back to Berlin.

With works by Marina Bychkova, Elena and Ekaterina Popova, Virginie Ropars, Eric van Straaten, Sakurako Iwanaga as well as Christine Polis and Benoît Polvêche we are thrilled to showcase a great variety of masterpieces of such an extremely elaborate handicraft.

This who’s who of doll makers have spent many month working with the finest, most exquisite materials to transform their visions of flawless beauty into one of a kind artworks.
Besides gaining a lot of interest in the art world, these creations regularly attract the attention of fashion experts. Because many of the involved artists take huge inspiration from fashion, their constant interpretation and incorporation of various styles and trends becomes a two-way street, and blurs the lines between those disciplines.

Opening on May 11th at 7 pm

Best advertisement of fragances

Be exessive by  PACO RABANNE, aggressive and powerful solution that fills a rebellious brand identity

OLD SPICE: The formula that won several awards at almost every festival in the world of advertising:

 

DAVIDOFF ADVENTURE: The relaxed style of the cosmopolitan man, a lotion for adventurers.

HUGO BOSS: A video that behind its apparent simplicity depends entirely on the brightful charm and freshness of a face: Sienna Miller.

Perhaps the fragrance industry is one of the most glamorous and sophisticated in the world of advertising. From package design to the creation of new flavors formulas. And the most interesting: creativity that will enhance a new brand identity.

One of a Kind

Strychnin Gallery proudly presents Miss Van, Mimi S., Marco Mazzoni, Yosuke Ueno and Hisiao Ron Cheng joining forces for their highly anticipated group show titled One of a Kind.
The exhibition, which will open on April 13th, thematizes the strong feminine power combined with a hint of elegance and colorful uniqueness that is reflected in every superheroine on this planet. Embodying surrealist aesthetics and integrating subtle symbolism, these artworks beautifully display and simultaneously toy with characteristics such as innocence and vulnerability as well as strength and determination.
The combined body of works of this group of artists, who have been featured on many book and magazine covers, have exhibited in galleries and museums all over the world and can surely be considered as some of the most inspiring and influential contemporary artists in their fields, will be on display at Strychnin Gallery Berlin until May 6th.

Iranian Perspectives

Leave a comment

iranian-perspectives

Eight Iranian photographers exhibit their unique, individual perspectives on life in Iran today, to offer a vivid social commentary on the traditions, religion, politics and culture of one of the oldest civilisations in the world and the people within it.

Exhibition highlights include: a photograph from Bahman Jalali’s Image of Imagination Series in which 19th century photo negatives have been layered and developed simultaneously to create a collage-like visual impression; Omid Salehi’s beautifully photographed Iranian wall murals; Jalal’s Sepehr’s Persian rugs situated in unlikely places and Tara Inanloo’s controversial self-portraits that were deemed ‘illegal’ in Iran and forced her to seek asylum in the UK.

This exhibition has been curated by Susan Young, Founder & Director of the Richard Young Gallery, and partner to renowned celebrity photographer, Richard Young. Susan is of Persian lineage and has acquired a specialist knowledge of Islamic art over the past 30 years.

 

Since 30th March to 2nd June
