Many thanks to the artist Laura Langer for her lecture SURRENDER TO ORDER, SURRENDER TO CHAOS and discussing the works of our participants within the Studio Program at BAI | Berlin Artist Residency, Art School, Arts Incubator, and Live Online Courses & Classes.

“This talk will delve into the artist’s most significant projects, exploring the processes and strategies behind exhibition-making. From the initial concept to planning and production, we will take a look at the driving forces behind creation and the obstacles that hinder progress. By addressing the complexities of presenting artwork, this lecture invites students to reflect on the dynamics of artistic creation, encouraging them to embrace both structure and unpredictability as they navigate their own creative journeys.” (Text by courtesy of Laura Langer)
