Paris Giachoustidis

In the surrealist poem Life is but a Dream by Lewis Carroll, the protagonist finds herself in a kind of dream. Much better known, however, is book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, in which the girl follows a white rabbit and dives into a wondrous world via a hole. Psychoanalysis, dream interpretation and hallucinogenic drug experiences were read in the work. The first solo exhibition of Paris Giachoustidis at KORNFELD GALERIE BERLIN shows new works from a series that deals specifically with dreams.

Galerie Kornfeld is delighted to announce it's ten year anniversary exhibition, wich will feature the artists that have come along with us through the decade. The anniversary exhibition will reveal touching glimpses of the past and the future, sensitive and exciting exchanges between first artistic attempts and more mature works. The works on show hint at inner struggle and transformation, the eternal search for what is hidden behind the visible.

68projects is pleased to present the works of Dominika Bednarsky and Paris Giachoustidis in the duo exhibition "Bitten by a Love Bug”. The exhibition challenges the mainstream portrayal of men and women, confronting the stereotypes, limitations, and ideals imposed on the disputed images of the sexes in society.

For this solo exhibition he has created a series entitled Urlaub in Deutschland (Vacation in Germany). Using photographic images from postcards, he realistically renders holiday scenes in bright acrylic colours on paper. Using references to art history, as well as productive disturbances in the form of targeted artistic interventions, Paris Giachoustidis’ Urlaub in Deutschland succeeds in unsettling viewers, forcing them to reflect on what they have seen. He thus creates highly topical, socially relevant works that sharpen our perception and potentially impact our everyday life, provoking a more critical attitude when dealing with images and pictures in general.
