Press release
We are delighted to invite you to the cooperative network and exhibition project between ID:I Galleri, Stockholm (SE) and Das Esszimmer – space for art+, Bonn (DE). Das Esszimmer will present four exhibitions in four weeks in the ID:I Galleri, Stockholm (SE).
On August 16, 2018 we have the great pleasure to welcome six Swedish artists with various experiences in running art spaces and art projects as well as curating and writing art criticism, in a conversation with Sibylle Feucht from Das Esszimmer (engl.: The Dining Room). The conversation will be moderated by Jon Brunberg, artist and member of SOC.Stockholm and chairman of Konstnärernas Riksorganisation Stockholms län.
The conversation will take place at IDI Galleri Tjärhovsgatan 19, Stockholm (SE), August 16, 2018 at 7pm, doors open at 6pm.
During the year, ID:I Galleri has made several exchanges with art spaces in Greece, Berlin, Canada and this summer with Das Esszimmer in Bonn (DE), which from July 27 exhibits at ID:I Galleri at Tjärhovsgatan 19 in Stockholm (SE).
ID:I Galleri has participated in Supermarket – Stockholm Independent Art Fair (SE) and also been present at the Platform Projects, Independent Art Fair, Athens (GR). We can see the large and important impact that artist-run initiatives have on art scenes all over the planet. How can we use our experience, develop our knowledge further and get organized? How can we influence politicians and decision makers to recognize and appreciate artist run initiatives and reach out for more support? Or can public funding even have a negative impact on our independence?”

* 1955 in Brescia (IT), since 1965 in Switzerland, lives and works in Zurich (CH). Luigi Archetti’s artistic practice revolves around the interface between art and music, which he seeks to make tangible. – In his installative staging’s he creates spaces that unfold multi-layered reference systems by introducing drawings, paintings, videos and sound
all acting and reacting with each other, by that means spanning a dense field of associations around audio-visual interfaces.
The vocabulary of music manifests itself not only in the ideas and the implementation of the works, but also in the direct use of objects and terminology from this field. Luigi Archetti stages the space as a medium in which different impulses – visual and sonic – meet.
Founder of numerous music projects in the field of experimental electro-acoustic music. Vast publication of CD’s with international labels such as Rune Grammofon, Oslo (NO); Die Schachtel, Milano (IT); Captain Trip Records, Tokio (JP).
Adam Knight (London, UK) | www.adamknight.co.uk
Taking apart the formats of artistic production, Adam Knight addresses complexities inherent in art-making. He is interested in pursuing and interrogating moments of a-synchronicity, doubt and self-critique. Starting points often involve researching personal histories alongside specific art, film, architectural and literary references. These may manifest into film, sound, text, sculpture or photography. Works directly inform one another and contribute to a broader practice-led exploration of presentation and association.
Born in Bedford, UK (1982), Adam Knight received his BA Hons in Fine Art at the Kent Institute of Art and Design, 2005 and an MA in Fine Art at the Royal College of Art, 2007.
