Ludlow 38

Part of the exhibition Growing Horns


MINI/Goethe-Institut Curatorial Residencies Ludlow 38 is pleased to present In a Future April, a collaborative performance by Anna-Sophie Berger and Dena Yago. As part of her current solo exhibition Growing Horns, on view through May 24, Berger will respond to prompts written by Yago and activate elements of the exhibition. The performance thereby addresses the concept of authorship and questions exhibition making as a static format.

Anna-Sophie Berger (*1989) studied fashion design and trans-disciplinary art at the University of Applied Arts Vienna. Her approach to the visual arts is characterized by a particular analytical depth and remarkable freedom from genre constraints. In a subtle manner, her textile works, photographs, installations, and performances question the sensuality of materials and disclose invisible processes of commercial production. Since 2012, Berger’s work has been presented in international galleries and institutions. Last year alone, she had exhibitions at the 21er Haus, Vienna; JTT, New York; Utopian Slumps, Melbourne; Mathew Gallery, Berlin; Futura, Prague; Rod Barton, London; and Off Vendome, Düsseldorf. Her performances and exhibitions have been reviewed in art magazines such as Artforum, frieze d/e, KubaParis, and Mousse Magazine. Berger currently lives and works in Vienna, Austria.
