Beth Collar
Beth Collar
Curated by GUTS
GUTS, Engeldamm 64, 10179 Berlin-Kreuzberg,
Yes, it is the second show of Beth Collar at GUTS. Yes, another solo. Yes, we don't know what Beth's gonna show. Yes, who knows, a performance or a sculpture. I heard Sophus Helle will write the text. Sophus Helle? the assyriologist? Yes, there will be a poster or maybe a booklet. Yes, aeroelastic forces might play a role in that show. Yes. This is exciting. Yes, children can understand that. Yes, the fluttering caused the storm. Of course a sculpture could crumble too. Yes, nothing lasts forever. Yes, GUTS has moved to Engeldamm 64. Yes, in Mitte. Yes, a bigger space. Oh yes, the new curtains make it feel totally different. Yes, to keep the conversation ongoing is crucial. Yes, at least to maintain a certain autonomy. Of course, the material is alive. Yes, the past is present. Yes. looking forward to it.
GUTS
GUTS is an artist-run space that appears when a white curtain transforms a room into a soft, curved environment challenging the usual hard walls and right angles.
GUTS presents artistic works developed for, and in dialogue with, this specific spatial condition.
The name draws on expressions such as "gut feeling" and "to have guts"; the gut that recognises, knows, yet can't explain. GUTS is drawn to artists who cultivate their enteric nervous system.
Animated by an osmotic fantasy, GUTS works with artists across generations and geographies. Founded in 2021, it showcases new strategies for showing art now, and most probably in a less glamorous tomorrow.
