Since August 13 of this year, Alicja Kwade's conceptual sculpture "Goldelse" (2021) has been on view in the sculpture garden of the Neue Nationalgalerie . The 160kg gilded bronze figure refers in form and content to the goddess of victory that sits atop Berlin's iconic Victory Column in Tiergarten, affectionately called "Goldelse" by many Berliners.
As part of Sound in the Garden, the "Unveiling" of the sculpture will take place in the sculpture garden on Thursday, August 22, 2024 from 7 pm. Live music by ROSIN, Stabat Kater and DJ sets by lariferrarie & Rico Sperl.
The artist will be present.
