In episode 15, writer and curator Enuma Okoro speaks with South African artist Berni Searle (b. 1964, Cape Town, South Africa, where she lives and works) about the layered languages of the body, memory, and perception. Working across photography, video, and sculpture, Searle explores how narratives are constructed and sustained through history, identity, and place, often against the backdrop of colonialism, apartheid, and their afterlives. “I don’t think art alone can change the world,” she says, “but it has a role to play.” Using her own body as a point of departure, she develops works that move between presence and absence, visibility and concealment. In her Colour Me (1998-2000) series, she covers her body in spices such as turmeric and paprika, materials that carry traces of trade, migration, heritage, and cultural memory. They also discuss Searle’s contribution to the Venice Biennale, shaped by the vision of the late curator Koyo Kouoh, that continues to resonate beyond her passing, committed to making visible voices and perspectives long considered peripheral. Ahead of that, her work can be experienced firsthand in Berlin : Searle’s exhibition at PSM Gallery opens during Gallery Weekend Berlin on May 1, 2026.

In Episode 14 sprechen Kunstkritikerin Silke Hohmann und die Künstlerin Jorinde Voigt (*1977, Frankfurt am Main, lebt und arbeitet in Berlin) zunächst über Berlin: Was macht die Stadt aus und worin liegt ihr besonderes Potenzial? In ihrem Atelier in Oberschöneweide zerlegt Voigt Wahrnehmungen in ihre grundlegenden Bestandteile und entwickelt algorithmische Abfolgen – Handlungs- und Aktionssequenzen, mit denen sich eine Situation innerhalb eines definierten Möglichkeitsspektrums durchspielen lässt. Die Zeichnung dient ihr dabei als zentrales Medium, um unterschiedliche Ebenen und Aspekte gleichzeitig nebeneinander sichtbar zu machen. So entstehen Werke, die nicht nur analytisch strukturiert sind, sondern auch die Vielschichtigkeit von Erfahrungen in einer eigenen visuellen, poetischen Sprache zum Ausdruck bringen. Ausgangspunkt kann zum Beispiel ein Spaziergang durch den botanischen Garten sein oder Ludwig van Beethovens Sonaten. Zum Gallery Weekend Berlin bringt Voigt den Himmel in die großzügigen, hallenartigen Räume der Galerie Judin in der Potsdamer Straße. Warum gerade das Blau des Himmels jetzt und heute uns etwas darüber verrät, womit wir es eigentlich zu tun haben, erfahren wir in dieser Folge des Podcasts – welche Farbe die Wände in ihrer Ausstellung „Non-Fiction“ haben werden, zeigt sich erst vor Ort.

In dieser Episode besucht Kunstkritikerin Silke Hohmann den österreichischen Künstler Heimo Zobernig (*1958 in Mauthen, Kärnten) in seinem Wiener Atelier. Das Gespräch beginnt mit einer Reise in die Vergangenheit: zurück in Zobernigs Kindheit auf dem Bauernhof, zu den Ursprüngen seines künstlerischen Denkens, wo frühe Vorstellungen von Räumen und Tunneln den Grundstein für ein Werk von großer formaler Konsequenz legten. Zobernig zählt zu den bekanntesten und vielseitigsten österreichischen Künstlern der Gegenwart. Seine Arbeiten greifen die Formen der Moderne auf, spielen sie durch, verschieben und hinterfragen sie. So entstand über Jahrzehnte ein umfangreiches Œuvre, das Malerei, Skulptur, Installation und Video umfasst. Welche Fragen ihn umtreiben - unter anderem wie schwierig es ist, jegliche Bedeutung aus dem Werk zu vertreiben - wird im Dialog mit Silke Hohmann deutlich. Außerdem erfahren wir, warum das Jahr 1977 für Zobernig ausschlaggebend ist und welche Rolle IKEA-Regale und Shakespeares Hamlet in seiner Ausstellung zum Gallery Weekend Berlin in der Galerie Nagel Draxler spielen.
