Gernot Wieland
June 2026
Gernot Wieland (*1968, Horn, Austria) is an artist based in Berlin whose films, drawings, lecture-performances and installations comment on human notions of belonging within inherited social, political and psychological processes. In this exhibition, the artist presents three new films and a series of prints that interweave with one another conceptually and emotionally. Overall his work plays off of fact and fiction, and often exists between dreamscapes, storytelling, reality and neuroses related to recollection in a combined narrative, often with a personal tone. In his films, these combined narratives address conditions of power and control, whether found in the classroom, societal norms or one’s own conscience or ego. Memory often plays a central role in the production of meaning in his films, whereby the narratives often confront the frailties of recollection, as well as collective mythologies and the human condition itself, all through an approach that embraces honesty, earnestness, remorse and humour.
