Bettina Pousttchi presents Framework
The Schirn Kunsthalle is showcasing a new work by German-Iranian artist Bettina Pousttchi specifically designed for the exterior of the Schirn. Similar to her well-received installation “Echo” (2009/10) in Berlin – where she resurrected the just demolished Palast der Republik (the former East German parliament building) in the form of a monumental photo installation applied to the façade of the Temporäre Kunsthalle (Temporary Art Hall) – her Frankfurt piece will likewise cover a large portion of the building façade. In “Framework” Pousttchi has taken timber framework elements from two buildings on Frankfurt’s Römer square out of the context of their original façades and combines them into an ornament composed of modules, each measuring one ... - Exposition
World Time Clock - Bettina Pousttchi
Bettina Pousttchi (b. 1971) has recently received due attention for her large-scale, site-specific photographic work Echo (2009/10). The project involved covering all four elevations of the Temporäre Kunsthalle Berlin with a digitally manipulated collage of archival images of the glass skin and concrete pilasters of the former Palace of the Republic. The photographic series Sculpture Project Echo (2009) is a portrayal of this black-and-white photo installation’s powerful persistence among the iconic buildings that surrounded it.
In her ongoing World Time series (2008–), from which this exhibition takes its name, Pousttchi photographs clocks on public buildings in different cities of the world, that exist in different time zones. The clocks always show the same hour, thus equating the remote locati... - Exposition
Bettina Pousttchi - Tomorrow was yesterday
The Buchmann Galerie is pleased to announce the first exhibition in the Buchmann Box, the Buchmann Galerie's second exhibition space in Berlin.
We will present new photographic works by the Berlin-based German artist Bettina Pousttchi, who is currently working in London for several months at the invitation of the University of the Arts.
The four large-format photographs in this exhibition (180 cm x 225 cm each) are the first works to have been produced in London. Taken on the streets of London, the motifs have an indexical ambiguity that is typical of the artist's approach to photography. The atmospheric blurriness is heightened by the horizontal stripes added by digital editing. The semantic charge of this cinematographic sequences produces a condensed space of association that recalls mnemonic images.

Bettina Pousttchi, Reality Reset
Bettina Pousttchi (b. 1971) works in a wide variety of media and is one of the most interesting German artists of the younger generation.
The Berlin-based artist alternates between photography, video, and sculptural elements.
Her work reflects the social, cultural, and sociopolitical conditions that determine and structure
the individual.
Bettina Pousttchi’s work has been shown recently in Idyll: Between Dream and Misapprehension at the Museum Domus Artium in Salamanca 2007 and the Sammlung Falckenberg Hamburg in 2006; The Youth of Today at the Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt in 2006; and Day for Night—Peace Tower at the Whitney Biennial in 2006. In 2003 Bettina Pousttchi was represented at the Venice Biennale.
This survey exhibition, which the artist selected and designed herself, also includes new...
