Silke Schatz
14 July 2006 - 16 September 2006
Staircase project
Silke Schatz (b. 1967) explores spaces she has lived in and architecture that is politically charged. She has made a wall drawing in the staircase at Camden Arts Centre in the run-up to the Archipeinture exhibition. She presents The talk with no title at the Goethe Institute about the converging interests in her work: Theresien Stadt, a former concentration camp near Prague; the architect Otto Haesler; and her relationship with the uncomfortable truth of her grandfather’s crimes in World War II.
