FLAGS OF A SHIFTED TERRITORY is a group exhibition with 10 positions of contemporary artists. The focus of the exhibition is on textile works.
Textile work is traditionally associated with handicraft production. The function of textiles is often based on rituals or ceremonies, cultural heritage passed down through generations, regional references.
Flags and coats of arms demarcate territories. Both territories and societies are demarcated.
The contemporary aspect of textile art are new, faster possibilities of textile production: digital printing, sublimation printing, serigraphy, fast fashion, etc.
The exhibition FLAGS OF A SHIFTED TERRITORY gathers installative, playful, decorative but also political works. Through the interaction between the material and the contents, a contextual shift takes place, giving the textile as a material in contemporary art a current content.
Salve Berlin was founded in 2016 by Jérôme Chazeix, Nina Maria Küchler and Johanna Silbermann and is a collective of artist-curators. The collective presented exhibitions in changing venues such as Künstlerhaus Bethanien, Studiogalerie Haus am Lützowplatz, RAE, Künstlerhaus Sootbörn.Hamburg. More than 250 artists have participated in their projects.
The exhibitions by Salve always occupy the entire exhibition space as an
"anti White cube". They bring together different media (textile, sculpture, painting, video and
performance). In the placement as an ensemble, the invited individual positions create new contexts. The list of artists is curated with a view to bringing together similar, complementary approaches. The exhibition themes often take recourse to art and cultural
history: traditional crafts and materials, rituals that reach back into
antiquity, and transpose them into a contemporary context. The collective´s goal is to present contemporary art in its diversity of media, generations
and with gender equality.
