MARTIN ASSIG + MARTIN BOROWSKI
"I AM A BERLINER" First Croatian Biennale of Painting
(Gruppenausstellung)

November 3 to December 3, 2011
Home of Croatian Visual Artists. Croatian Association of Artists is a professional guild organization of visual artists in Croatia, which has decided to establish the first Croatian Biennale of Painting. At the Biennale, we will present the most interesting occurrences on the Croatian painting scene and give a framework for its theoretical reflection and reevaluation. Apart from presenting what is new in Croatian painting today each new instance of the Biennale will present relevant tendencies in painting in particular cities, regions and countries.

This year we have invited a reputable British curator with a Berlin address, Mark Gisbourne, in order to select and present to the Croatian public what he considers most interesting in what is momentarily the freshest painting scene in the world. As a result of his selection in the Barrel Gallery, and as part of the Biennale of Painting, we will present eighteen of the most prominent Berlin based painters in an exhibition titled “I am a Berliner”.

Mark Gisbourne’s selection: Martin Assig, Daniel Biesold, Norbert Bisky, Martin Borowski, Axel Geis, Valerie Favre, Katharina Grosse, Harald Hermann, Gregor Hildebrandt, Christian Hoischen, Michelle Jezierski, Ruprecht von Kaufmann, Clemens Krauss, Robert Lucander, Gerold Miller, Frank Nitsche, Peter Stauss, Miriam Vlaming
