David Claerbout: The quiet shore

April 30 – July 18, 2015
FAHRBEREITSCHAFT, Berlin

Opening: April 29, 2015, 7 – 9 pm
Gallery Weekend: May 1 – 3, 2015, 12 – 6 pm

The scenery portrayed in David Claerbout’s The quiet shore (2011) presented as a loop on a big screen in Garage 50, is located in Brittany, a region known for having the strongest tides in Europe. The beach is particularly fascinating at its lowest tide, deserted and with watersoaked sand. Emerging here is an image so calm that it reflects the surrounding world like a mirror.
