What motivates us, how do we work and why are we doing what we do? Have a listen to the interviews with my colleagues and me.
“Conversations about art - About the art of being an artist.
Artists also live a shadowy existence, often unable to make a living from their art, but also unable to let it go. There are numerous articles on the precarious situation of artists. And yet it doesn't seem to work without art. Sometimes there is a kind of creative urge or even an inner voice or a certain flow that makes you keep going, without fail.
Why is it not possible without art, even though the social and economic conditions are so precarious? What keeps you going? What is success? What is so important about the artistic life, despite the circumstances?
What are the different concepts, motivations and challenges? What levers can be inspiring for others who want to follow this path? Are there differences between the paths of women and men and queer artists? Are there recurring demands or experiences that come up in several conversations? What are the paths to art and to your own artistic expression?”

14.-28.Oktober 2023
Herzbergstrasse 55, 10365 Berlin
”ExtractArt is presenting its most ambitious exhibition yet in the spacious halls of HB55 Art Factory in Berlin.
From an international open call that ran over the summer and a boatload of entries, 42 artists were selected to present a wonderful work of theirs that can be seen as a suitable representation of their oeuvre, a “pars pro toto” (a seemingly impossible task for any artist).
While the only limitation of the exhibition was the concept of “monochrome”, artists were free to interpret and challenge this, the resulting selection offers a carefully balanced clash of styles, presentations and media. The exhibition is conceived as a means to create dialogues between sometimes very different artistic styles and concepts, and to explore to what extent they can create a cohesive experience and enhance the individuality of each artist.”

Visual Arts Show February 2023
Cista Arts is pleased to present “Inspired by Love”, an online group show of international artists.
”Love encompasses a range of strong and positive emotional and mental states, from the most sublime virtue or good habit, the deepest interpersonal affection, to the simplest pleasure. For the philosopher, the question “what is love?” generates a host of issues: love is an abstract noun which means for some it is a word unattached to anything real or sensible, that is all; for others, it is a means by which our being—our self and its world—are irrevocably affected once we are ‘touched by love’; some have sought to analyse it, others have preferred to leave it in the realm of the ineffable. All artists with a different artistic approach reflected their individual and exceptional experience around the theme ‘Inspired by Love’.
The artists whose work features in this exhibition are: Abbie Rose Thompson, Alejandro Lopez-Rincon, Anja Wülfing, Cat Hamilton, Chloe Whitehouse, David Kirkman, Emy Spinks, Fiona Stewart, Jillian Sarette Li, Jonathan Straight, Julia K Burzon, Julia Kuzina, Laura Marija Salkauskiene, Lonni Wong, Rebecca Uliczka, Venessa Lagrand.”
