Ich kenne kein Weekend. The Archive and Collection of René Block

With „Ich kenne kein Weekend. The Archive and Collection of René Block” Neuer Berliner Kunstverein (n.b.k.), in partnership with Berlinische Galerie and Lentos Kunstmuseum in Linz, is dedicating a show to the manifold and interdisciplinary work of gallery owner and exhibition maker René Block. Block’s career began in 1964 in West Berlin, where he opened his gallery with the legendary show Neodada, Pop, Décollage, Kapitalistischer Realismus, presenting at the time unknown artists such as Joseph Beuys, Nam June Paik, Sigmar Polke, Gerhard Richter, or Wolf Vostell. The show is accompanied by a program of events. There is an extensive publication with the collected texts by René Block and a detailed chronology, published by Verlag der Buchhandlung Walther König.
