We are delighted to announce that Xie Lei has been awarded the 2025 Prix Marcel Duchamp, recognizing his distinctive contribution to contemporary painting.

Rooted in the long tradition of figurative and symbolic art, Xie Lei’s practice renews the language of painting by exploring the tension between visibility and evanescence. His works unfold as thresholds between the real and the imaginary, the physical and the psychological. With subtle chromatic vibrations and phosphorescent hues, he creates spaces where time seems suspended — a poetic resistance to the acceleration of the present.

For the 25th edition of the Prix Marcel Duchamp, Xie Lei presents seven monumental canvases, a chromatic symphony of luminous greens that blur the boundaries of perception and transform gravity into a dreamlike state. His works invite viewers into an experience of slowness and contemplation, reconnecting painting with its capacity for reverie and reflection.

Piece for A Clock
Performance

GAK, Bremen
Sep 25th, 7PM

In their performance Piece For A Clock, Mara Wohnhaas & Magdalena Frauenberg play a barrel organ duet. Since the instrument is limited to only 20 notes, the selected pop songs are transformed into abstract/reduced melodies and an exploration of the instrument, promises, limitations, and expectations. The title is derived from Mozart’s three pieces for barrel organ, which he himself classified under the title “A piece for an organ work in a clock.” He wrote them as a commission and only because he was in an unsatisfactory financial situation.
