We are halfway through our first month of the 39th round and the artists are busy in the studios and on location. We are excited to invite you to see how their work is developing.
Our first show this round “Elsewhere a Blue Line and the Absurdity of a Ghost on a Stone” will be held at Kunstkraftwerk. This is our first time there and the artists are very inspired by the space and its conservation of original fixtures. This is a chance for them to do site-specific and custom works as a reaction. ‘In the face of facts we have to draw a line where none exists’ – Karl Jaspers, 1913.
Elsewhere a Blue Line and the Absurdity of a Ghost on a Stone

Round 39’s final exhibition “Wrestling with Impermanence”opens Saturday 23 March at Pilotenkueche International Art Program. The artists are again drawn to the architectural anomalies of our art space and hope to take advantage of the weather and create an indoor/outdoor vernissage. The outdoor portion will cease to exist after that night. As the artists of the 39th round of Pilotenkueche come to the end of their residency, the states of the permanent and fleeting are wrestled with. In celebration of the time passed, we hope to see you for the final exhibition
