13 2009 Exhibitions September 18, 2009 – January 23, 2010 Building Berlin Nevin Aladag, Daniela Brahm, Rui Calçada Bastos, Jesko Fezer and Axel Wieder, Pia Fuchs (German ID of Patricia Reed), Ingo Gerken, Thom Kubli, Lars Ramberg, Karin Sander, and Daniel Seiple. Curated by Germaine Koh. Building Berlin merged KW|AG’s interest in local and global activity in contemporary art. The exhibition featured the work of artists, all based in Berlin, who were chosen to participate in the exhibition because of their involvement in shaping the city’s current art scene. The exhibition featured painting, new media, sculpture, and installation. The exhibition also included Tear Down This Fence, a participatory project, conceived by Daniel Seiple, which brought together the border residents of Kitchener and Waterloo. Janice Kerbel Singularly Significant series in concert with CAFKA, Contemporary Art Forum | Kitchener & Area As a complement to CAFKA’s 2009 theme of Veracity, KW|AG was pleased to present the work of UK-based Canadian artist Janice Kerbel. Kerbel’s exhibition included Remarkable, a series of prints reminiscent of fairground posters that announced the spectacular feats of improbable beings. Also included was Underwood, a series of four fictional love letters, one for each season, rendered in a typeface designed to mimic a faulty typewriter.
September 18, 2009 – August 29, 2010 Being Magnified: Heroes and Villains from KW|AG’s Permanent Collection Curated by Cindy Wayvon, KW|AG Featuring works from KW|AG’s permanent collection, Being Magnified took the visitor through a “Hero’s Journey”, where each artwork explored a stage of self-exploration, growth, or triumph. Through select paintings, prints and drawings, the exhibition delineated the path to heroism or self-actualization, magnifying moments of curiosity, struggle, and strength all in pursuit of an empowered existence.
