Black on white" exhibition

Dear friends of the ROOT Gallery,

After a long break to move, the ROOT gallery is finally opening its doors again at its new location at Schillerstr. 34, 10627 Berlin with the exhibition "Schwarz auf Weiss". Academy graduate Ilka Schneider is showing her latest works, which were created after she graduated. Ursula Commandeur's black and white porcelain sculptures are a perfect match for the black and white ink works. The exhibition title "Black on White" is the programme: Now it says "black on white" on the invitation card that the ROOT gallery has moved into new premises! You can see the rooms from the street through the large shop window and see it with your own eyes "black on white".

I cordially invite you to the vernissage on Thursday, 30 September from 7 - 10 pm.

Please bring your proof of full vaccination protection or recovery or a current negative corona test to the opening. In the rooms of the ROOT Gallery and the Academy, we all wear mouth and nose protection for safety. The rooms are ventilated.

Due to the restricted times from the lockdown, we are maintaining the possibility to participate in the vernissages of the ROOT gallery online via ZOOM. To do this, click on the following link shortly before the start of the event:
