Thinking About Trees Peter Fischer and his team have gathered about 100 works for the exhibition and the volume ABOUT TREES. Be it the huge rags stumps by Berlinde De Bruyckere, shimmering waxen and wrapped in giant rags, or the oil painting of a sparse forest with fragments of a Corbusier building in the background by Peter Doig; the mighty, upside-down black-and-white photograph of an oak tree by Rodney Graham or the picture of a detonated fruit tree by Michael Sailstorfer: these works of art always depict the tree as a diversely interpretable motif. In particular, it is about how the subject tree in a symbolic way »may raise fundamental questions of existence«. Art, in contrast to natural sciences and religion, has an advantage as it only has to raise questions, not give answers. Thus, it can reveal the tree as »a symbol, mirror and object of projection«, demonstrate how it represents life and/or death. Trees, however, are also suitable as a theme for »clashes and inspirations«, since it is lends itself to trace the story of human relationship with nature in an exemplary way, while, at the same time, pointing out that the dichotomy between nature and culture need not necessarily lead to destruction. According to Robert Macfarlane in his contribution »Buchenhain«, from a branch or the crown of a tree, man views the world not only in a liberated way, but he can even feel safe in it, as a kind of hybrid of »tree and man«. Accordingly, as the editor of the volume Peter Fischer points out, the tree is also ideally suited as a »symbol of imaginary worlds and embodiment of actual worlds«, for instance when it begins to speak like in fairy tales, formulating its own laws; and "long-lasting and durable, trees also have the ability to grant a specific identity to their location and environment. As a striking object, the tree contributes to the individual image of a place. It bears witness to the history of its location. The law is administered and implemented under a tree, there are celebrations and feasts.«Artists: Carlos Amorales, Ursula Biemann & Paulo Tavares, Merijn Bolink, Louise Bourgeois, Berlinde De Bruyckere, Mark Dion, Peter Doig, Valérie Favre, Anya Gallaccio, Rodney Graham, Katie Holten, John Isaacs, Naoko Ito, Wiliam Kentridge, Anselm Kiefer, Paul Klee, Rosemary Laing, Žilvinas Landzbergas, Ndary Lo, Paul McCarthy, Ana Mendieta, Agnes Meyer-Brandis, Paul Morrison, Shirin Neshat, Jill Orr, Renzo Piano, Pipilotti Rist, Ugo Rondinone, Julian Rosefeldt, Michael Sailstorfer, George Steinmann, Wolfgang Tillmans, Su-Mei Tse, Shinji Turner-YamamotoExhibition:Zentrum Paul Klee Bern, 17/10/2015–24/1/2016

JAK and the Agnosia There is an old tree trunk in the foyer of Villa Merkel, a sculpture of about seven meters in height, supported by a slanting, reflective, bright green piece of epoxy resin; a landscape in flowing mist; floating porcelain objects – these are settings from a film script. The work is by JAK. But who is JAK? Did JAK, as we read these lines, already manage to get inside our heads? JAK has been working on the film SOUL BLINDNESS since 2013, yet the development process is unlike that of a »normal« film project. From one exhibition to the next, JAK continues to write the story of the screenplay using various media such as drawing, text, video, sound, sculpture, painting, photo and installation. Continually shot, this film describes how the main character is dealing with agnosia, a psychological anomaly where objects can no longer be unambiguously identified or attributed, and which is therefore also known as »soul blindness«. Interestingly, JAK, as author and artist in one, and the agnosia as a »disturbed« relationship with the world, can’t be clearly separated, so that the participants and the layers combine with one another, and render each other unrecognizable: JAK remains anonymous, and the agnosia remains in the realm of the illusory, which corresponds rather well to its status as an illness. Meanwhile, everyday actions from the screenplay for SOUL BLINDNESS are transformed and take shape as stage sets. In the run-up to this complex JAK project, there were three solo exhibitions in Stuttgart, Taipei and Leonberg. In March 2017, the exhibition at Villa Merkel had its overture at the Representation of the State of Baden-Württemberg in Brussels. The book gives an extensive insight into JAK’s work, but there is absolutely no information about who JAK actually is! Exhibition: Villa Merkel, Galerien der Stadt Esslingen, 18/6 – 27/8/2017

It’s about construction In 1955, the artist and author Will Barnet, as a matter of fact, presented Adolf Fleischmann as an »American painter« in his text »Aspects of American Abstract Painting« and in 1966, Fleischmann is listed in Paul Cummings’ »Dictionary of Contemporary American Artists« among the leading artists of the United States. These kind of statements from the New York painting scene of the 1950s reflect an evaluation of his importance, which had previously been largely ignored in the entire literature on Fleischmann: The painter, born in 1892 in the Southern German town of Esslingen, moved to America only in 1952 aged 60, but he was nonetheless soon acclaimed in the mecca of art on America’s east coast as an »American abstract artist«, and became a great originator in the context of abstract art, as inspired by Mondrian. Adolf Fleischmann, represented with a significant group of works in the Daimler Art Collection, is one of the outstanding abstract painters in Germany and the USA after 1945. The Daimler Art Collection Berlin now presents the first retrospective of the artist’s work in Berlin with around sixty works from three decades, including the principal work painted in New York between 1952 and 65, complemented by representative paintings created during the 1940s while still in Europe. The publication accompanying the exhibition presents the first thorough examination of Fleischmann’s work in the context of American abstract painting of the period. Also published are early texts on the reception of the Fleischmann’s American oeuvre from the 1950s and 1960s. In addition, this is the first English-language publication on Fleischmann’s painting, so that his work now promises to engage audiences as well as museums in the US. The later work by Adolf Fleischmann, both in its astonishing coherence as well as its painterly variations and multi-faceted abundance, now awaits discovery and appreciation in the context of German and American 20th century art.Exhibition:Daimler Contemporary Berlin, 30/4–6/11/2016

The Sky, the Sea and Förg As in his book »Gazzetta dello Sport« Günther Förg devoting himself 2006 again to watercolours on one theme. In this case it is a group of landscape paintings from the end of the 19th century from a small but exquisite collection from Baden upon which he built a group of about 80 watercolours. Günther Förg’s special access to landscape is surprising in this rapidly developed series and can be construed as a form of abstraction. When looking through the works which are constantly periodically interrupted by one of the »drafts«, it is very quickly possible to see in the rhythm of Günther Förg’s pictures the extent abstract painting is and remains superior to figurative ideas of these years.

What a rare mushroom can teach us about sustaining life on a fragile planet Matsutake is the most valuable mushroom in the world—and a weed that grows in human-disturbed forests across the northern hemisphere. Through its ability to nurture trees, matsutake helps forests to grow in daunting places. It is also an edible delicacy in Japan, where it sometimes commands astronomical prices. In all its contradictions, matsutake offers insights into areas far beyond just mushrooms and addresses a crucial question: what manages to live in the ruins we have made? A tale of diversity within our damaged landscapes, The Mushroom at the End of the World follows one of the strangest commodity chains of our times to explore the unexpected corners of capitalism. Here, we witness the varied and peculiar worlds of matsutake commerce: the worlds of Japanese gourmets, capitalist traders, Hmong jungle fighters, industrial forests, Yi Chinese goat herders, Finnish nature guides, and more. These companions also lead us into fungal ecologies and forest histories to better understand the promise of cohabitation in a time of massive human destruction. By investigating one of the world's most sought-after fungi, The Mushroom at the End of the World presents an original examination into the relation between capitalist destruction and collaborative survival within multispecies landscapes, the prerequisite for continuing life on earth.
