GERHARD RICHTER
ERINNERUNGEN AN EINEN ANFANG
November 18, 2024 – January 5, 2025

Exactly 60 years ago to the day, on November 17, 1964, Galerie René Block opened Gerhard Richter's first solo exhibition in Berlin entitled Bilder des Kapitalistischen Realismus. Early works by the artist were shown, including Familie (1964), Arnold Bode (1964), Terese Andeszka (1964) and Stukas (1964). To accompany the exhibition, his first catalogue was published. To mark the 60th anniversary of our first Gerhard Richter exhibition, we are showing early prints and archive material by and about Gerhard Richter at Prager Straße 5. The exhibition is accompanied by more recent editions by Edition Block.

REBECCA HORN
IN MEMORIAM
November 18, 2024 – January 5, 2025

Rebecca Horn opened her first solo exhibition at Galerie René Block in March 1973, just a few metres away from KIF, Edition Block's relocated shop window in Schaperstraße. A close collaboration began with the body-related installation Körperraum, which also resulted in the multiple Handschuhfinger from the same year. To commemorate our early years together, we are showing material from two exhibitions by Rebecca Horn at Galerie René Block in Berlin (1973) and at René Block Gallery in New York (1976) alongside the multiple.
