Individual Residencies
2019 | Wolf von Kries
Wolf von Kries is a German artist based in Berlin. Following his studies at the University of Fine Arts Berlin and the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts, Paris he has developed a multidisciplinary practice which includes installation, video, photography, drawing and collage.
Wolf often creates subtle interventions in everyday routines and ordinary objects to suggest alternative ways to read our environment. More concerned with generating a shift of perception then actual physical transformations his approach has evolved over the years to encompass walking, gathering and (re)interpreting or juxtaposing his finds with phenomena of seemingly unrelated fields and disciplines. To this end research residencies in countries all over the world have become an integral part of his working practice.
