Marjetica Potrc and Tomas Saraceno

Portikus in Frankfurt am Main, the Kunsthalle of the city’s Art Academy - the Stadelschule, is moving into a new space. After leaving its original address behind the facade of the destroyed city library in 2003, the Portikus has staged more than twenty shows in an architectural structure designed by Tobias Rehberger, professor of sculpture at the Stadelschule. Now the time has come for the institution’s third phase: On May 5, Slovenian artist Marjetica Potrc and Frankfurt-based Argentinean artist Tomas Saraceno will inaugurate the new venue with the show Personal States / Infinite Actives. Both artists have an architectural background and will display new works articulated in the realm between sculpture and architecture.

Olafur Eliasson’s light lab, located in the building’s large glass roof and visible only from the outside, is already in operation. Eliasson’s project will develop over two years and continuously change the appearance of the building.

Designed by Frankfurt architect Christoph Mackler, the new building is located on a small island in the river Main at the very heart of the city. Portikus is an institution that emphasizes on experimentation and production. Most likely the unusual site and the exhibition space will trigger unexpected projects by the invited artists. During the first year in the new venue, Portikus will realize projects of Dan Perjovschi (July-August), Francis Alys (September-October), Paul Chan (October-November), a show curated by Michael Krebber (December-January), John Baldessari (February-March, 2007), Judith Hopf & Henrik Olesen (March-April, 2007), and Paulina Olowska (May-June 2007).

Portikus re-opens at the new venue with exhibition no. 140. Since its foundation by Kasper Konig in 1987, the following artists were presented: Dieter Roth, Anna & Bernhard Blume, Thomas Struth, Siah Armajani, Erik Bulatov, Niele Toroni, Franz West, Gerald Domenig, Thomas Ruff, Peter Fischli & David Weiss, Ilya Kabakov, Allan McCollum, Stephan Balkenhol, Nam June Paik, On Kawara, Gerhard Richter, Thomas Schutte, Katharina Fritsch, Lawrence Weiner, Hans-Peter Feldmann, Ettore Spalletti, Jorg Immendorff, Hanne Darboven, Thomas Bayrle, Ellsworth Kelly, Raimer Jochims, Sol LeWitt, Matt Mullican, Nicole van den Plas, Bernhard Hartter, Holger Bunk, Jonathan Borofsky, Bruce Nauman, Che'ri Samba, Raoul De Keyser, Christian Boltanski, Gerhard Wittner, Harald Klingelholler, Claes Oldenburg, Mike Kelley, Herbert Hama'k, Otto Muehl, Leni Hoffmann, Candida Hofer, Rudolf Steiner, Isa Genzken, Jean-Fre'de'ric Schnyder, Fre'de'ric Bruly Bouabre', Richard Artschwager, Dennis Adams, John Wesley, Paul-Armand Gette, Lothar Baumgarten, Ernst Caramelle, Sherrie Levine, Wiebke Siem, Sigmar Polke, Luc Tuymans, Tony Oursler, Per Kirkeby, Steven Pippin, Luciano Fabro, Raymond Hains, Christa Naher, Eran Schaerf, Andreas Gursky, Wolfgang Tillmans, Boris Michajlov, Marlene Dumas, Sarah Lucas, Ulrike Grossarth, Frantisek Ska'la, Tobias Rehberger, Franz Ackermann, Dietrich Ohrt, Steve McQueen, Matthew Barney, Gregor Schneider, Tomas Schmit, Allen Ruppersberg, Udo Koch, Jorg Sasse, Christian Jankowski, Garry Neill Kennedy, Thomas Hirschhorn, Daniel Buren, Gabriel Orozco, Maria Eichhorn, Mark Wallinger, Andreas Siekmann, Heimo Zobernig, Smith & Stuart, Stefan Kern, Manfred Pernice, Jim Isermann, Elke Krystufek, Hans Haacke, Nikifor, Daniel Hunziker, Michael Elmgreen & Ingar Dragset, Rirkrit Tiravanija, Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster, Jason Rhoades, Peter Cook, Rivane Neuenschwander, Philippe Parreno, Gilbert & George, Simon Starling, Pascale Marthine Tayou, Rene'e Green, Janet Cardiff & George Bures Miller, Louise Lawler, Bas Jan Ader, Henrik Plenge Jakobsen, Ceal Floyer, Spencer Finch, Kirsten Pieroth, Cildo Meireles, Carl Michael Von Hausswolff, Inventory / Scott King / Donald Urquhart, Salla Tykka, Sejla Kameric, Akram Zaatari, Koo Jeong- A, Sean Snyder, Felix Gmelin, Yoko Ono, Matthew Ritchie, Chung Seoyoung, Mark Leckey.
