Galerie Suvi Lehtinen in Berlin presents the first major solo exhibition of artist Iwajla Klinke titled Crowns and Gladiola. Klinke's medieval-style portraits are inspired by Yona Wallach's poem Jonathan in which the author imagines herself as a boy being slain by other children carrying gladiolas as swords. Her photographic work features images of young people and children in various roles, with elaborate costumes and the most bizarre styling we've seen lately, from dead birds and mice to meat and lit candles. Simply amazing.
Running from November 5th to November 26th, 2011
