Runes at Zirkumflex on Berlin Art Grid

Opening Runes

Artists: grems
Genres: grafitti, graphic design, editorial, illustration, music, mural

With the exhibition “Runes” (September 30-October 30, 2016), Grems opens the first chapter in a series, taking up a carte blanche invitation to make unrestricted use of the Zirkumflex space and culminating in a mural and a limited edition collection of printed illustrations in collaboration between Grems and Zirkumflex.

As a “Paleo-graffer” Grems explores the anatomy and geometry of proto-alphabets. He harnesses a unique grasp of the letter and fascinating geometric abstractions, which is able to portray on any medium. For the exhibition, he has developed graphemes inspired by the runic alphabet.

A limited edition of five Riso-printed posters by Inkwell Press, is the result of the collaboration between Zirkumflex and Grems. This collection consists of four original duotone illustrations by the artist and a fifth designed by several hands and printed in four colors. There are only 50 copies published of each individual poster. Five exclusive customised boxes that gather the complete series will also be published especially for this occasion.

On Friday, September 30, 2016 the exhibition will celebrate an opening night, from 19h until late. It will be accented by hip hop, deep house, broken beats of Grems and other guests and will be broadcasted live on Unknown Radio.
