OPENNING PERFORMANCE 2024.03.15 (Fri) 19:00 -

KIKA gallery is pleased to present an exhibition by Dutch artist An Onghena in collaboration with Limestone Books, a gallery in Maastricht, the Netherlands.
Inspired by the color black and an immense fascination for the book as an art object, An Onghena presents an exhibition that touches both sides. During a performance, she will install the presentation, disassemble books, unfold them into space, and transform them into mural works. Like the folded pages in the book, like the moon, there is a front and a far side: recto and verso, a known and unknown side.
The exhibited books and prints are an outcome of an effort to observe the darkness of Iceland’s night sky in 2015. This exhibition will vividly present to visitors the unique approach and profound message of Onghena’s work. We invite you to take this opportunity to step into the world of An Onghena.
