Please feel warmly invited to join our new series “Flock“, that is co-organized by the Academy of Fine Arts Nuremberg and the Kunstverein Nürnberg—Albrecht Dürer Gesellschaft. Artist Leonie Nagel screens her new film “Echte Sonnen” that she produced as part of KERFE together with Micha bonk4∞ and children from the Forcki adventure playground.
Leonie Nagel (b. 1992 in Freiburg im Breisgau, DE) is an artist and also teaches regularly at the Academy of Fine Arts Leipzig, the Kunsthochschule Kassel, and the Academy of Fine Arts Munich. In her spatial works and narratives, she explores organizational systems and their conventions, work, play, and language. She is part of various self-organized networks and also co-founded the project space Cittipunkt e.V. in 2022, where she organizes exhibitions and a film club for teenagers, among other activities.
As part of a new cooperation between the Academy of Fine Arts Nuremberg and the Kunstverein Nürnberg—Albrecht Dürer Gesellschaft, artists, thinkers, and curators are invited to present their work at both institutions over two days. At Kunstverein the invitees introduce into their work in the form of a reading, a screening, a performance, a jam session, or similar, and a following conversation. The next day, academy students have the opportunity to exchange about their work with the guests in studio visits at the academy. The “Flock” format is centered around forms of collaboration and artistic self-organization. The first series, featuring Leonie Nagel, Fanny Hauser, and Wisrah C. V. da R. Celestino, focuses on different possible collaboration partners.
