SUMMARY:Of course I know eternity: Wilhelm Traeger + Gray Wielebinski
DESCRIPTION:The ACF is pleased to announce our summer exhibition Of course I know eternity: Wilhelm Traeger + Gray Wielebinski\, curated by Sasha Shevchenko and Pia Zeitzen of Kollektiv Collective. \n\n\n\nThe exhibition brings together the works of Wilhelm Traeger (1907 – 1980) and Gray Wielebinski (b. 1991) in a unique artistic dialogue and a site-specific\, collaborative exercise in temporal contextualisation. We are thrilled to present 13 large-scale collages by Traeger for the first time in the UK alongside site-specific works by London-based contemporary multimedia artist Gray Wielebinski. Representing a generation of Austrian artists who were unable to establish international careers during their lifetime\, Traeger’s work encounters that of Wielebinski\, which\, in contrast\, is formed in a globalised and hyperconnected world. Alongside each other\, Traeger and Wielebinski demarcate a time where one artist’s tomorrow is the other’s present-day\, a moment after the fall and\, at once\, on the edge of the next. \n\n\n\nAs a conversation between two artists who have never met\, Of course I know eternity defies distance – physical\, temporal\, geographical and that of a lifetime – through Traeger’s and Wielebinski’s shared fascination with collage\, both as a medium and a methodology. Together\, Traeger’s collages-on-paper dating between 1961 and 1969 and Wielebinski’s site-specific installations interrogate the ways in which time is felt and contextualised. The resulting visual kaleidoscope joins fragments\, forms and nuances across the two floors and corridors of the ACF. Here\, collage becomes a totalising force that extends beyond the edges of a given artwork\, implicating the very walls and stairways of the building they occupy. \n\n\n\nThis artistic and intergenerational exchange explores the intellectual and artistic legacy of the Austrian post-war avant-garde\, their questions reverberating in the present moment. Opening on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the end of WWII\, Of course I know eternity examines the nonlinearity of history\, collaging together the conflicting relationship of hope and fear as it was felt then\, as it is felt now. \n\n\n\nThe exhibition will be on view at the ACF London until Friday 18 July 2025. \n\n\n\nOpening: 8th May at 6pm.
