Glue

In the 3rd back yard, through the Gothic Corner on the right, 2nd floor up, you will find it. It’s rather hidden, you’d never find it without knowing about it first. Run by Asim Chughtai, curator and Dag Przybilla, artist, Glue hosts week-long rotating group shows. They open, explode with the Friday evening preview event, and it is this event that everybody comes to. Then they close for the rest of the week, opening via appointment if you missed the preview. This isn’t a space where they want to sit around waiting for a sparse audience who may or may not come by, they have too many other things to do, they told me. So the night is Friday, they have 2 large rooms, they have a bar, they show all sorts of works, things they like, proposals they receive, following no particular trend, and influenced by no commercial needs. They fund it themselves, but when I visited a few days ago, its future was uncertain, having been told to move out of the current space.

See Fleisch too.
