2Agenten Gallery, Berlin : Tina Berning "No Nipples. No Guns. No Cigarettes."

2AGENTEN are pleased to announce their exhibition of TINA BERNING’s new works, in a solo show titled "No Nipples. No Guns. No Cigarettes." The opening date is 14 November, 2008 at 2Agenten, Gallery for Illustration, Berlin. The series of works shown explore the complexity of relationships between conditioned aesthetics and supposed self-determination in the established canon of contemporary images.

Within her works, the artist refers to the exemplary representation of the human body as it is spread in the media. Tina elutes the figures from their surroundings and depicts them as isolated in their poses. A reinterpretation arises in the interplay of voyeurism and exhibitionism. Tina Berning's exhibition will be open for three months.

Opening reception: November 14, 2008 at 7pm.
