Johannes Brander – FEELING$ REAL

20.08.2022 - 06.09.2022


“I started building this in 1978. Through the walls, through the peoples’ eyes, body and mind, through the crack, through corporation firewalls and my mirror reflecting. Hombre Primitivo; fire lit, built then burnt. Walking on shattered landscapes, seeing ants slowly building a home out of it with beauty and pride. A stranger’s realm, crossing its graveyard at dawn. You know nothing. FEELING$ REAL”

Johannes Brander (b. 1978) studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Gothenburg. Brander has participated in exhibitions in Denmark, Mexico and Germany as well as many museums (Stockholms Konstmuseum, Göteborgs Konsthall, Kristinehamns konstmuseum etc.) and galleries in sweden (Galleri Thomassen, Steinsland Berliner, Göteborgs konstförening etc.)

Brander works in a broad variety of mediums such as drawing, collage, sculpture, performance and making fanzines as well as produces and distributes music through his own record label Native Parts Records.

FEELING$ REAL is his second solo exhibition at Gallery Thomassen.
