ada is … Ivana Kličković


Ivana Kličković – „Yellow Brick Road“

Ausstellungseröffnung: 15. März, 18.30 Uhr

Zu Gast in der ada ist diesmal die großartige Ivana Kličković aus Berlin. Eingeladen von Barbi Marković, für deren letztes Buch „Minihorror“ sie das Cover und die Illustrationen gestaltet hat.

Kličković ist Malerin mit Hang zum Isolieren und Sampeln von visuellen Patterns, die sie Bildern entnimmt, die sowohl zeitlich als auch kulturell weit entfernt sein können. Diese Fragmente werden in ihren Arbeiten oft ahistorisch überlagert und im Zweidimensionalen weit aufgespannt. Die Ausstellung „Yellow Brick Road“ nimmt ihren Ausgang in einem Fliesenmuster aus dem ada-Stiegenhaus. Es werden Elemente aus dieser Zierleistenlandschaft gesampelt, und die Assoziationsmaschine der Künstlerin hat Mohnfelder genauso ausgespuckt wie Elemente aus dem Kosmos früherer Arbeiten. Ease on down the road!
