Picture frames, which typically enhance, ennoble, and crown the artworks entrusted to them, are being toppled from their throne. How? By being broken open, blown apart, squeezed, severely damaged, or simply bypassed and abandoned by the objects within them — by their own motifs. Or even haunted again.
The exterior, the serving element, becomes the true object of interest, while the interior, the expected, goes off track, breaks out, and, like the proverbial marauding bands, sets off on a journey. A breakneck emigration — or rather a disintegration?

Biography
Alexander Farid und Cornelia Bördlein
Cornelia Bördlein studied at art academies in Nuremberg and Berlin. She is distinguished by a highly personal visual language that shifts between a playful, tongue‑in‑cheek view of homeland‑rooted idylls and subtle commentary on the complexities of big‑city life. For more than a decade, she has been realizing numerous projects in the Neukölln area together with the group rixxperiment.
Alexander Farid is the subject coordinator for Art at the Benjamin Franklin School in Berlin. He studied art education, media education, and German didactics in Erlangen and Nuremberg. His painterly works, created in the style of a new symbolism, can be seen on the website alexfarid.de. He also employs installation-based and performative approaches in his aesthetic explorations.
