April Gertler & Adrian Schiesser - Sonntag. A Receipe for Social Art Practice

Sonntag is a nomadic project initiative founded by the artists, Adrian Schiesser and April Gertler in 2012 and takes place in different private Berlin apartments. Sonntag is a platform for Berlin-based artists to develop their artistic activities; a place to present works of art to a wider public in connection with the German tradition of getting together over coffee and cake on a Sunday afternoon. Sonntag in book format, highlights the work of 44 previous Sonntag artists. New work made especially for the book by each artist, in addition to their favourite cake recipe, will be the foundation of the Sonntag book. The book will highlight a wide variety of nuances of the project, including closely examining Sonntag as a social sculpture which harnesses not only dialogue about art making in a private space, but takes a look at how food and the architecture of a home can contribute to a greater experience, simultaneously by the exhibiting artist and the viewer.
