THE MARICONNA T-SHIRT

Introducing Juan Pablo Echeverri’s MariconnA T-Shirt, an exclusive re-edition of the late Colombian artist’s own tee made in partnership with the artist’s estate.

Buy it here.

Riffing on the iconic logo for the rock band Metallica, Echeverri created his own symbol re-appropriating a Spanish slur for “gay” and used it throughout his practice and on clothing he wore.

A Look at Hair from Diane Arbus to TikTok

From Afro, locs, braids or cornrows to bob, beehive or taper, hair is an integral part of our everyday culture and offers unlimited design possibilities. How we choose to show or hide, grow or shave  our head, facial and body hair is an expression of our personality, but also of our affiliation to social, political, religious or cultural communities. We use hairstyles to communicate, optimise and conceal a part of our identity, to set ourselves apart or fit into a collective, and thus to send out messages – whether intentionally or unintentionally. In the everyday tension between intimacy and public representation, we use our hair to show our individuality, conformity, rebelliousness or solidarity.

The exhibition entitled Grow It, Show It! explores the historical, political and everyday cultural significance of hair through a wide range of historical and contemporary photographs, videos and film clips from art as well as fashion and social media.

Museum Folkwang | GROW IT, SHOW IT!

On Flourishing reflects exhibitions of the past eleven years at Klemm’s gallery in Prinzessinnenstrasse, opening tomorrow, Saturday APR 20, 2024, from 4—8 pm.

With the next, exciting chapter in the new gallery space about to start, we have decided to gather a selection of significant pieces that have inhabited these walls over the past years — each one a different, individual chapter of a shared history — now dialoguing together on the occasion of the very last group show hosted by Klemm’s Kreuzberg location. This celebration is not just a reflection of the past but a bridge to the future. It is an invitation to get together and celebrate not only the gallery’s history but also the vibrant community that shares our memories, emotions, and visions.

Representation of The estate of Juan Pablo Echeverri

Klemm’s gallery Berlin is honored to announce the representation of the estate of Juan Pablo Echeverri!

Juan Pablo Echeverri (1978–2022 Bogotá, Colombia) was one of the most interesting voices among contemporary visual artists from Latin America. Mainly concerned with self-portraiture, his work is multi-faceted in the truest sense of the word. Echeverri’s oeuvre consists of a series of clearly demarcated cycles of images and videos with each cycle being both visually distinctive and endowed with a surprising formal stringency, challenging fixed notions of the self and even the contours of truth and deception, identity and masquerade.

Juan Pablo Echeverri - Identidad Perdida

Juan Pablo Echeverri | James Fuentes Press

Surveying the visionary work of Colombian artist Juan Pablo Echeverri (1978-2022), this publication accompanies the exhibition Juan Pablo Echeverri: Identidad Perdida presented in two parts at Between Bridges, Berlin (April 2023) and James Fuentes, New York (June 2023). Detailing the wide-ranging work in both exhibitions, spanning his entire career, the publication features a foreword from Wolfgang Tillmans, a reprinted interview with the artist, and a new essay by Inti Guerrero.


British Journal of Photography | Juan Pablo Echeverri

Identidad Perdida [‘Lost Identity’] is a new show devoted to the work of Juan Pablo Echeverri, a Colombian artist who died suddenly last year of malaria.

Curated by Wolfgang Tillmans with some of Echeverri’s closest friends and family, it’s now open at Tillmans’ Between Bridges gallery in Berlin and is coming soon to the James Fuentes gallery in New York. The two-site exhibition gathers work made by Echeverri over the last three decades, and is both a tribute to the artist and a chance to get his work more widely seen – work that, says Tillmans, still hasn’t received its due. “In retrospect it has become clearer how important his work was, and how trailblazing,” he comments.
