Amnon David Ar's 'Light Years' at Berlin's Kirche am Hohenzollernplatz
Amnon David Ar, an artist originally from Israel, showcases 'Light Years', an extensive solo exhibition at Kirche am Hohenzollernplatz in Berlin-Wilmersdorf. This exhibition includes large-scale paintings produced since his relocation to Berlin in 2013, featuring everyday still lifes, overlooked items, and portraits. Curated by Martin Kiefer, who has a long-standing role as a contemporary art curator at the Louvre, the exhibition aligns with the release of Ar's art monograph bearing the same name. Additionally, an interdisciplinary series of concerts and artist discussions complements the exhibition. Ar's artistic approach, noted for its technical accuracy, leans towards hyperrealism while engaging with the history of art.
