Over the past two decades, in its premises in Berlin and Singapore, as well as formerly in Zurich, New York, Melbourne and Sydney, ARNDT has produced more than 320 exhibitions with 76 publications featuring leading emerging and established Asian and international artists. ARNDT also participated in more than 140 art fairs around the globe, such as Art Basel, Art Basel Miami, Art Basel Hong Kong, Art Stage Singapore, FRIEZE London and many others.

Celebrating its 20th anniversary in Singapore, a substantial presentation of 50 artworks by 39 artists from Central and Southeast-Asia, the United States, Germany, Europe, Russia and Australia marks the commitment of the gallery and its founder Matthias Arndt to the new location Singapore. Having pioneered in Berlin in 1994 founding the first gallery with international profile in former East-Berlin, Matthias Arndt premiered shows of leading Southeast-Asian artists in Europe and Australia in the past 5 years. Since then ARNDT has been focusing on the transfer between Asia-Pacific and Europe, while building a strong international and Asian gallery program in the expanded Singapore premises at Gillman Barracks.

The exhibition „20+2 YEARS“ is accompanied by a 231 page publication, featuring the gallery’s history and journey from 1994 to today, highlighting some of the key exhibitions held in Berlin, Singapore and the gallery’s other premises.

20 + 2 YEARS
Eine Ausstellung anläßlich des 20-jährigen Bestehen von ARNDT im Artspace@Helutrans.

16. Januar - 15. Februar 2015
Öffnungszeiten: Mittwoch – Samstag von 11 – 18 Uhr und nach Vereinbarung.

ERÖFFNUNG | DONNERSTAG | 15. JANUAR 2013, 15 - 21 Uhr | ARTSPACE@HELUTRANS SINGAPORE

Matthias Arndt freut sich, mit der Ausstellung “20+2 YEARS” in Singapur das 20-jährige Bestehen von ARNDT zu feiern. In den letzten zwei Jahrzehnten hat ARNDT in den Galerien in Berlin und Singapur, sowie in Zürich, New York, Melbourne und Sydney, 320 Ausstellungen junger und international etablierter Künstler präsentiert, 55 Kataloge, und Künstlermonographien publiziert und an 140 Kunstmessen rund um den Globus teilgenommen (u.a. der Art Basel, Art Basel Miami, Art Basel Hong Kong, Art Stage Singapore, FRIEZE London, FIAC).

“20+2 YEARS” umfasst 50 Werke von 39 Künstlern aus Zentral- und Südostasien, den USA, Deutschland, Europa, Russland und Australien und gibt einen Einblick in die Ausstellungsaktivitäten der letzten 20 Jahre. Mit der Entscheidung, das Jubiläum mit einer so substantiellen Ausstellung an dem jüngeren Standort in Singapur zu veranstalten, unterstreicht Matthias Arndt seinen Fokus auf die neuen Märkte und Kunstlandschaften Asiens, wo Arndt mit seiner Familie lebt. Gleichzeitig erinnert die Ausstellung und die parallel dazu erscheinende Publikation, Arndts Bekenntnis zu seinen Berliner Wurzeln, wo er 1994 die erste Galerie internationaler Ausrichtung in Berlin-Mitte eröffnete und zu dem Standort Berlin, wo ARNDT seither ein anspruchsvolles Ausstellungsprogramm präsentiert.

Seit dem Umzug in 2010 an die Potsdamer Strasse, dem heutigen neuen Kunstquartier Berlins, widmet sich ARNDT Singapore verstärkt dem Transfer seines international etablierten Programms nach Asien. Parallel dazu präsentiert ARNDT Berlin die wichtigsten Künstler aus Südostasien im Westen.

“20+2 YEARS” eröffnet am 15. Januar 2015, von 15 – 21 Uhr in dem “Helutrans Artspace”, dem, mit 850 qm Ausstellungsfläche, größten Projektraum in Singapur.

Anlässlich der Ausstellung erscheint eine 240-seitige Publikation, welche die Entwicklung von den Anfängen in Berlins Hackeschen Höfen, zu der heutigen globalen Kunstunternehmung anhand der Ausstellungen und Projekte dokumentiert.
