Trampoline is pleased to support the solo exhibition of Nils Alix-Tabeling at the Dortmunder Kunstverein in Germany in 2023, titled Ulrike Mandrake. This support follows a series of artist encounters organised for the Kunstverein’s director Rebekka Seubert, through Trampoline’s professional invitation programme in 2020-22.

 

Nils Alix-Tabeling (*1991 in Paris, lives and works in Montargis, FR) creates multimedia performances and installations with painting, sculpture, sound and film. He works with elements from science fiction, fashion, historical objects and furniture, shamanism and drag. His works move on the border between fiction and reality, questioning images of the body and creating new physical possibilities by blurring the boundary between objects and living bodies, between humans and animals.

For his first institutional solo exhibition in Germany, the artist is producing a new series of works that explore how the violence of the scientific gaze on the female and queer body has been dealt with up to recent history.
