In many of Lisl Pongers photographs the image works as a condensed narration and all details of the images are full with historical and political references and allusions. The works in our exhibition can be situated in a timeline, which starts with the development of anthropology as a self-reflective science. “The masks have to be danced” even on the thin ice of late colonialism and a carnivalesque present time.

Charim Galerie
Charim Galerie, founded in 1997, presents internationally active artists at two locations in Vienna. Accompanied by events and publications, the gallery also addresses a broader public in order to provide young, emerging artists in particular with publicity and market access. An essential part of our gallery work, in addition to participation in fairs and the placement of works in private and public collections, is networking through collaboration with curators and art institutions.
