Artist Talks Glenkeen Garden Residencies with Yulia Carolin Kothe, Katerina Sidorova & Max Brück

The Crespo Foundation is delighted to continue the series of artist talks featuring Glenkeen Garden residents. Located in Roaringwater Bay in West Cork, Ireland, the Glenkeen Garden Residency has been active since 2021, welcoming diverse groups and individual artists in this unique setting under the motto “ArtNature/NatureArt”. In the talk series, the artists will showcase the work and research developed during their residency. The inaugural exhibition of the residency program will open in Frankfurt this Autumn at the new Crespo House at Weißfrauenstraße.

While collecting local stories and lore, the artists Yulia Carolin Kothe, Katerina Sidorova and Max Brück, based in Glasgow, Amsterdam and Frankfurt, contemplate the idea of a vessel not as a mere container but as a cultural carrier. Inspired by the tradition of preserving objects and heirlooms in the bog, the artists create an open environment that functions both as an archive and a tool to share local and personal stories linked to the communal experience of wetlands.

The talks, moderated by Ben Livne Weitzman, will be held in English.
