50 Years for Artists and Art
Annual Exhibition of the Münchner Künstlergenossenschaft (MKG)
February 2 – 25, 2018
State Museum of Egyptian Art, Munich

 

Kaikaoss presents his artworks as part of the annual exhibition of the Münchner Künstlergenossenschaft (MKG), on display in the underground halls of the State Museum of Egyptian Art, alongside fellow MKG members, graduates of the Munich Academy of Fine Arts, and renowned guest artists.

From February 1 to 25, 2018, a total of 169 works – including paintings, graphic art, and sculpture – will be exhibited.

Founded in 1868 with royal privileges granted by King Ludwig II of Bavaria, the MKG now celebrates its 150th anniversary under the patronage of Duke Franz of Bavaria, head of the House of Wittelsbach. A member of the Wittelsbach family will attend the event as guest of honor. Numerous figures from the arts, culture, and politics have confirmed their presence, including Matthias Gangkofner, president of the Münchner Künstlerhaus, and Professor Yongbo Zhao of the Munich Secession.

For the first time in its history, the MKG will award its Honorary Medal, recognizing individuals for their outstanding support of artists and the arts in Munich.

This year's recipients are Maja Grassinger, president of the Münchner Künstlerhaus at Lenbachplatz, and her husband Peter Grassinger, honorary president. The medal, designed by MKG honorary president Nikos W. Dettmer, will be presented during the ceremony, along with his laudatory speech.

To mark the "150 Years of MKG" anniversary, both the exhibition catalogue and commemorative publication have been redesigned. Part of the proceeds from catalogue sales will benefit the “Münchner für Münchner e.V.” foundation, initiated by Natalie Schmid, wife of Munich’s Second Mayor Joseph Schmid.

Exhibition in New York gallery NO SPHARE Arts 2015.

Circle of Fire, a show of paintings with esoteric content.

Inzwischen bin ich aus New York zurück, wo ich in der Galerie No Sphare eine Ausstellung hatte, die sehr gut angenommen wurde.



On December 6, 2014, Kaikaoss was informed that the planned exhibition “Circle of Fire” at the No SPHERE gallery in New York had to be postponed. The exhibition’s title unfortunately proved to be an unfortunate premonition, as a fire broke out in the gallery.

Fortunately, no one was harmed. The exhibition is scheduled to be rescheduled for February, once the repair work is completed.

 


December 12, 2014 through January 4, 2015

Opening reception Friday, Dec 12, 7-9 pm

with LIVE PERFORMANCES

by Katy Gunn and Karen Nikgol.

 

'Circle of Fire', a show of paintings with esoteric content, unites four representational artists from far away (Iran, Denmark, Afghanistan and Norway), as well as an American musician based in Berlin. Part of a nomadic tribe of artists traveling the world, the lot meets up in various cities across the globe for creative collaborations. An initial project featuring three of the exhibitors took place at Gallery Oxholm in Copenhagen this past summer. Next up are shows in Germany and Italy in the spring, and plenty more to come.

 

Fostering an international network of artists is at the very core of NOoSPHERE Arts’ mission, as reflected in our name: the noosphere (pronounced “know-oh-sphere”) means the “sphere of human thought”, or the collective consciousness of our species. It is a stage of evolutionary development dominated by the mind and interpersonal relationships. Constituted by human interaction and cultural production, the noosphere is a constantly expanding web of connections encircling the Earth’s biosphere; a sphere of mind – or circle of fire– encompassing our planet.

BREMERVÖRDE. Er berührt, entführt in seine Welt, wirft Fragen auf – wer die Bildersprache Kaikaoss‘ verstehen will, der muss schon genauer hinschauen, sich los sagen vom ersten Ein-druck. Vom 26. September bis zum 24. Oktober zeigt „Kunst an der Oste“ im Kultur- und Hei-matkreis erstmals diese so faszinierende Bilderwelt des in Afghanistan geborenen und aufge-wachsenen Künstlers in den Ausstellungsräumen des Bachmann-Museums. Am Sonntag, 26. September, um 14 Uhr setzt Kaikaoss (Foto) zudem seine Kunst in einer Tanzperformance „Emotions in motion“ um. Mehr über aktion Burka mit art & Ausstelung in Bachman Museum...
