Current exhibition:

THE DEAR ARCHIVE
Or: When Mr. Sanders opened his record cabinet
1.7. – 10.10.2025

In the 1950s, conductor Franz Marszalek presented ‘rare, forgotten, perhaps today unique treasures’ - as he himself said in his first broadcast - once a week in the radio programme Herr Sanders öffnet seinen Schallplattenschrank (Mr. Sanders opens his record cabinet), sharing historical records from his archive with his audience. Among the listeners was the young René Block, who followed the format with great enthusiasm at the time. Just like Franz Marszalek once did, Block (who would have liked to have become a conductor) is now opening up his archive himself and providing insights into his work as a gallery owner and curator over the past 60 years.
The exhibition shows a selection of materials, publications and ephemera such as exhibition posters and invitation cards from various stages in Block's career.
The current exhibition also includes a remarkable series of personal portraits of artists whom René Block occasionally photographed - a reflection of intensive collaborations and close friendships.

Window exhibition

SUNAH CHOI
Sol
1.7. – 31.8.2025

With her site-specific installation Sol, Sunah Choi transforms the KIF window into a space of glass and light. Eight seamlessly arranged glass panels fit perfectly into the space behind the window and fill its floor plan. They are both a "floor" (French: sol) and a large-format image. In her work, Sunah Choi deals with space, its perception and its cultural coding. She draws on the vocabulary of architecture as well as that of painting and sculpture. Of particular interest are those elements that structure or infuse the space, such as windows, frames or grids. In this way, Sol builds on the Edition Karo conceived for Edition Block in 2020.

In parallel, Sunah Choi is showing new works at GROTTO in the Hansaviertel under the title Maquette.
