A Rock That Keeps Tigers Away

Curated by Post Brothers with Chris Fitzpatrick, the exhibition ‘A rock that keeps tigers away’ at Kunstverein München includes new and recent works by nine artists: Beth Collar, Tania Pérez Córdova, Jason Dodge, Simon Dybbroe Møller, Laura Kaminskaitė, Francesco Pedraglio, Adrien Tirtiaux, Freek Wambacq, and Herwig Weiser. Both exhibition and book survey how artists identify and consider the relation between causation and correlation in order to connect disparate phenomena across time and space, how simple shifts in circumstances yield palpable results elsewhere, and how the juxtaposition of objects modifies their individual meaning, utility, and apprehension.
