AIR_Frankfurt: Austellung
Alexandre Caretti
Thursday, 13.03.2025 - 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm

location

basis e.V. Gutleutstraße 8-12 60329 Frankfurt am Main

We cordially invite you to Alexandre Caretti exhibition Skulpturen für Bankhallen opening March 13 at 6 p.m.

Skulpturen für Bankhallen takes a playful and revealing look at the imaginaries that tower up around the world of finance and its architecture. Visitors enter an installation that, like a constructed storyboard, invites them to tell and retell the stories and images with which high finance is presented and presents itself. The exhibition brings together a whole menagerie of iconic animals that finance bros use to explain the world to themselves, from "sharks" and "eagles" to "turkeys".

Far more than pure affirmation, Alexandre Caretti's cleverly assembled works open up an associative game that humorously undermines the powerful habitus that is expressed in these financial images. As with one of those Skulpturen für Bankhallen which contains in one movement the symbol of money eternally "pumping" upwards, and the potential to become a banker's mousetrap for those who blindly run after money.

The exhibition is part of the AIR-Frankfurt program in cooperation with the city of Frankfurt and CEAAC Strasbourg.

 

Onening hours:

March 14.-16: 4–6 p.m.
