I know it's a little early, but the first show of the season for Peres Projects Berlin is set for 09.20.08 with solo shows by assume vivid astro focus and Dutch artist Amie Dicke.

"For her fourth solo exhibition with Peres Projects, Passive Drifter, the Dutch artist Amie Dicke will present an installation of new sculptures and framed works. Never falling prey to the often literal approach of political art, Amie's works instead turn the constant hum of Europe's shameful cultural and political past into an enabling violation – an aesthetic game that turns classical imagery and often found antique objects on its head and leaves Amie with a rich visual vocabulary all her own."

"assume vivid astro focus Berlin premiere at Peres Projects will include new wall papers, drawings, works on canvas, neon sculptures, and a not-so-surprise performance by a surprise guest. assume vivid astro focus, with a palette that is Rosenquist meets Tropicalia creates, a la Takashi Murakami, everything from handbags to decals to full multi-media installation events."

If you missed AVAF's installation at the Deitch LIC space, you'll want to see this one. Their work's amazing. I didn't use to like them so much, but I think my tastes have changed and their worked has really come into its own.

aqui volvemos adornos frivolos (assume vivid astro focus) and Passive Drifter will be on view at Peres Projects (Schlesische Str. 26, 10997 Berlin) through October 25.
