This is not a new insight, but sometimes this truth presents itself so immediately and personally that one grasps it anew. That is exactly what happened recently at The Gallery of Things. The magnificent goddess paintings by Antonia van Gallenstein, featured in the exhibition 'invisible orders', inspired the writer Bianca K\u00f6rner to complete a text about Athena and Aphrodite and to present it as part of the reading event 'silence\/writing'. For me as a gallerist, this was a moment that shows why the arts and creativity are so inseparably intertwined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A Poem that transforms colours and forms into language<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The poem is titled \"Two Goddesses\". It is not a commentary on the works \u2014 it is an echo. A voice of its own, which found through the artwork a frequency to reach completion. It was simply moving to listen to the words of the author Bianca K\u00f6rner. These two souls in the poem 'Two Goddesses', who live together, love, fight and weep. To witness the interplay as one goddess took the lead, the inner monologues set against the virtues of the goddesses. But it was also wonderful to look around at the audience and see how they hung on every word, spellbound. The conversations that arose in the subsequent discussion round with the author were interesting and captivating. And so that everyone truly understands what I mean by this, I am delighted to share the poem here with the kind permission of Bianca K\u00f6rner (the original poem is in German, untranslatable due to its poetic nuance)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Zwei G\u00f6ttinnen<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Bianca K\u00f6rner<br>Lesung \u201eschweigen \/ schreiben\u201c<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Zwei G\u00f6ttinnen\u00a0<br>Zwei Seelen wohnen nicht\u00a0<br>in meiner Brust,\u00a0<br>nein, in meinem Kopf\u00a0<br>herrschten zwei G\u00f6ttinnen:\u00a0<br>Athene.\u00a0<br>Sie, die wie ich schon mit\u00a0<br>R\u00fcstung\u00a0<br>auf die Welt gekommen ist,\u00a0<br>bereit gegen alles und\u00a0<br>jeden zu k\u00e4mpfen,\u00a0<br>selbst wenn das K\u00e4mpfen\u00a0<br>nur in unserem Kopf\u00a0<br>stattfand.\u00a0<br>In meinem Kopf, der jede\u00a0<br>zerdachte Nacht, zu ihrem\u00a0<br>Tempel wurde.\u00a0<br>Und Aphrodite.\u00a0<br>Sie, die kleinen M\u00e4dchen\u00a0<br>wie mir ins Ohr fl\u00fcsterte,\u00a0<br>sie w\u00e4ren wertlos\u00a0<br>ohne Mann.\u00a0<br>Dass die Liebe, die Ehe, das\u00a0<br>Wichtigste\u00a0w\u00e4re\u00a0<br>und uns dann alleine lie\u00df,\u00a0<br>wenn das Feuer erloschen war,\u00a0<br>aber die Ketten fest\u00a0<br>geschmiedet.\u00a0<br>Athene.\u00a0<br>Sie, die den Menschen\u00a0<br>Wissen und Weisheit\u00a0<br>brachte,\u00a0<br>mich lesen lie\u00df und\u00a0<br>schreiben,\u00a0<br>mich ehrgeizig machte und\u00a0<br>strebsam.\u00a0<br>Aphrodite.\u00a0<br>Sie, die mir in Athenes\u00a0<br>B\u00fccherstapel all diese Liebesgeschichten\u00a0<br>unterjubelte,\u00a0<br>sodass ich schon mit elf\u00a0<br>bef\u00fcrchtete,\u00a0<br>f\u00fcr immer allein und\u00a0<br>ungeliebt zu bleiben.\u00a0<br>Meine ganze Jugend war\u00a0<br>ein Trainingslager f\u00fcr\u00a0<br>diesen Olymp.<br>Ihre Glaubenss\u00e4tze, die\u00a0<br>mich ein Leben lang\u00a0<br>pr\u00e4gten, waren ihren Gebete zu mir:\u00a0<br>Aphrodites \"Ich bin nur\u00a0<br>etwas wert, wenn ich\u00a0<br>geliebt werde \"\u00a0<br>Athenes \"Ich bin nur etwas\u00a0<br>wert, wenn ich besser bin\u00a0<br>als alle anderen\"\u00a0<br>Athene, das erste Pick-Me-<br>Girl,\u00a0<br>die Frauen zu Spinnerinnen\u00a0<br>erkl\u00e4rte, wenn sie ein anderes Bild\u00a0<br>webten als sie,\u00a0<br>zwar nicht wie Aphrodite\u00a0<br>mit M\u00e4nnern spielen,\u00a0<br>aber die Spiele der M\u00e4nner\u00a0<br>mitspielen wollte,\u00a0<br>den einzigen Platz am\u00a0<br>Tisch, der von der\u00a0<br>Frauenquote gedeckt\u00a0<br>wurde.\u00a0<br>Auch wenn das hie\u00df, dass\u00a0<br>Opfer f\u00fcr die Taten von\u00a0<br>T\u00e4tern bestraft\u00a0<br>und selbst Freundinnen zur\u00a0<br>Zielscheibe wurden.\u00a0<br>Langsamer als Pallas\u00a0<br>durch Athenes Schwert\u00a0<br>starb die Freundschaft zu\u00a0<br>meiner besten Freundin,\u00a0<br>nachdem sie und mein\u00a0<br>erster Freund\u00a0<br>sich in den Hallen nebenan\u00a0<br>k\u00fcssten\u00a0<br>und ich ihm den Verrat\u00a0<br>verzieh\u00a0<br>und ihr nicht.<br>Aphrodite,\u00a0<br>deren G\u00fcrtel ich mir enger\u00a0<br>schn\u00fcrte,\u00a0<br>deren Sch\u00f6nheit ich in\u00a0<br>meinem Spiegel suchte,\u00a0<br>deretwegen ich M\u00e4nner\u00a0<br>fand,\u00a0<br>die einen Krieg in sich trugen,\u00a0<br>deretwegen ich M\u00e4nner\u00a0<br>fand,\u00a0<br>die meine beste Freundin k\u00fcssten.\u00a0<br>Sie, die mir die Liebe noch in den giftigsten\u00a0<br>Geschichten glorifizierte\u00a0<br>ihr \u201cWir zwei gegen den\u00a0<br>Rest der Welt\u201d<br>Athenes \u201cIch allein gegen\u00a0<br>den Rest der Welt\u201d\u00a0<br>Hauptsache k\u00e4mpfen.\u00a0<br>Wenn sie mir jetzt\u00a0<br>begegnen, hold l\u00e4chelnd,\u00a0<br>einen goldenen Apfel\u00a0<br>zwischen sich haltend,\u00a0<br>erkenne ich die alten\u00a0<br>Muster auf ihren Stolen\u00a0<br>Durchschaue endlich, dass\u00a0<br>ihre Glaubenss\u00e4tze nur\u00a0<br>ihnen helfen,\u00a0<br>nicht mir.\u00a0<br>Mich selbst priorisieren, mit\u00a0<br>Frauen solidarisieren,\u00a0<br>sich entromantisieren, M\u00e4nner\u00a0<br>dezentrieren \u2014 alles noch\u00a0<br>immer ein Prozess, eine\u00a0<br>ganze Prozession.<br>Und solange bete ich zur\u00a0<br>G\u00f6ttin der Jagd,\u00a0<br>um keine Jagd mehr auf\u00a0<br>M\u00e4nner oder Frauen zu\u00a0<br>machen.\u00a0<br>Werde stattdessen zur\u00a0<br>H\u00fcterin aller Frauen und\u00a0<br>Kinder,\u00a0<br>werde ihre Schwester,\u00a0<br>werde wild und unz\u00e4hmbar,\u00a0<br>ziehe mich zur\u00fcck in den\u00a0<br>Wald<br>und lerne mit Pfeil und\u00a0<br>Bogen zu schie\u00dfen\u00a0<br>auf unseren wahren Feind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What does this say about art and creativity<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Inspiration does not arise in a vacuum. It develops in the encounter; between a work and a viewer, between an attitude and a question, between what the artists intended and what the viewers make of it. As a <a href=\"https:\/\/thegalleryofthings.com\/de\/kunstgalerie-tgot-in-berlin-vorstellung\/\">Berlin art gallery<\/a> with a focus on feminist \/ female, activist and sustainable art, I get to experience this time and again. Our visitors sometimes arrive with a specific intention: whether to buy a painting, see an exhibition, or spend an evening in good company surrounded by art. And sometimes they leave with something they did not expect \u2014 an idea, a plan, a fresh perspective on their own work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What will your poem be?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Discover The Gallery of Things<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An art exhibition in Berlin at The Gallery of Things is made for exactly these kinds of moments. Here, I warmly invite you to simply feel at ease and let art work its magic. Perhaps you too will find inspiration in it \u2014 be it in the form of a poem, a sketch, or a thought that stays with you for the rest of the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Come by. Look around. Take your time. And if something comes of it, I would love to read or hear about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Current exhibition information, opening hours and selected works can be found on <a href=\"https:\/\/thegalleryofthings.com\/de\/\">The Gallery of Things website<\/a>.
