Alfredo Jaar, (Kindness) of (Strangers), Galerie Thomas Schulte, Berlin

Galerie Thomas Schulte, Berlin, presents a new installation by Alfredo Jaar. (Kindness) of (Strangers) confronts visitors with a large-scale complex arrangement of neon arrows which, under their seemingly confusing lay-out, replicate a very familiar phenomenon. It illustrates the movement of people, from South to North. A small adjunctive chart acts as key and reveals that the arrows correspond to the main travel routes of migrants in 2015. The scale and complexity of these movements highlight the extraordinary journey of migrants fleeing war and persecution.

Until 15 February 2016.
