The exhibition Disproof Does Not Equal Disbelief by the Berlin-based artist Michael Stevenson (born in 1964, NZ) presents an unconventional invocation of his practice over the past 35 years. Since the 1980s Stevenson has developed an artistic language that operates at the juncture of economy, technology, education, and faith, exploring the infrastructural systems that condition these disciplines and their entanglement. The exhibition marks Stevenson’s first institutional solo presentation in Berlin and presents a focused revision of his work, in which early paintings are brought into dialogue with more recent expansive installation.

Massimo Spada’s photography becomes testimony to, and an opportunity to reflect on, an extraordinarily significant work of architecture: the ‘houses’ of the new town of Longarone, designed by architect Valeriano Pastor immediately after the Vajont Dam disaster. It is a historical experience using photography, a record of reality that conciliates the relationship between individual sensibility and the world, then becoming a recollection, and once again a memory. In this open format document there is a perpetual present, a changing vision, open to continuous reinterpretation and, perhaps, new considerations.

Produced in conjunction with Niloufar Emamifar, SoiL Thornton, and an Oral History of Knobkerry at SculptureCenter, New York.

Sara Penn’s Knobkerry: An Oral History Sourcebook is the culmination a years-long oral history project, conceived and developed by writer and oral historian Svetlana Kitto, that begins to demarcate a potential sphere of influence for artist and designer Sara Penn (1927–2020) and Knobkerry, the store she founded and ran in New York City. This publication assembles fifteen long-form interviews with figures close to Penn and Knobkerry, conducted by Kitto between 2017 and 2020, including Sara Penn, Andrea Aranow, Charles Daniel Dawson, David Hammons, Joanne Robinson Hill, Kate Prendergast and Jane Barrell Yadav, Sana Musasama, Eric Robertson, Fumi Schmidt, Seret Scott, Elena Solow, Carol Thompson, Ken Tisa, and Paulette Young. It also includes extensive reproductions of archival materials related to Penn and the store, collected by Kitto in collaboration with Penn and a number of her close relations.

“The images that comprise this book come from two sheets slides that I have held onto for almost thirty years now. Over that time I have projected them talks I gave here and there, although never a talk devoted solely to the person that took them.That would be Laurie Parsons, an artist who was active between 1986 and 1994, a period of about 9 years . In the first three, she focused on found objects, things she would bring back from the urban, the natural, industrial environment, or their intersection.”—Bob Nickas, 2021
