Eva Duerden: fickle contingents
9 – 16 April, 2026
Vernissage – Thu 9 April 2026, 18:00 – 21:00
Turning Space presents of new series of works by Eva Duerden that conjure a sense of domestic history within our Altbau-esque space on Wrangelstrasse. Both difficult to contend with and unexpectedly generous, the artworks in fickle contingents surface questions around value through the materials and compositions themselves: some position themselves as static and trustworthy; others feel far more flippant and volatile.
OPEN CONVERSATION>
#1 Between Frames with Eva Duerden
Sat 11 April 2026
15:30 – Doors open / drinks and snacks
16:00 – 17:00 Let’s talk
Turning Space invites creatives, writers, and thinkers from across disciplines to join an open and informal conversation examining the constructed borders between art and design, and how their aesthetic and cultural value is framed, manufactured, and circulated. At a time when the cultural sphere increasingly intersects with branding, design economies, and monetised identities, we invite those working in and around these fields to contribute to a shared discussion.
>RSVP
The conversation will move through questions such as:
ø the aesthetics of bootlegging and fakery, and the role of translation and misinterpretation
ø how authenticity is constructed, and how cultural artefacts are framed for value — economically, symbolically, and socially
ø how practices that overlap categorisation, through acts of translation, role-play, or subversion, might unsettle fixed frames of meaning in the present moment
This conversation takes place in the context of Eva Duerden’s exhibition fickle contingents at Turning Space.
*Drinks and snacks provided.*
*Attendance is free, but capacity is limited — please RSVP to info@turning.space *
The event takes place at Turning Space, Wrangelstrasse 66, 10997, Berlin
TALK>
Futures in Friction
Sat 23 May, 2026
Full details to follow
Turning Space’s ongoing enquiry Futures in Friction explores how we live with uncertainty — socially, ecologically, emotionally — in ways that are unevenly distributed and unequally endured. Resisting the idea of the future as singular or linear, this talk will aspire to approach it as plural, entangled, and shaped by histories of extraction, resistance, and responsibility.

Introducing Turning Space

18:30 – Performance
19:00 – Talk with Aleksandra Nazarova and Brad Nath
The talk follows how orientation is shaped through movement and attention, as sound crosses thresholds, corners, bodies, and hierarchies. The event coincides with the presentation of the exhibition unlived present, with works by Aleksandra Nazarova, Brad Nath and Niki Danai Chania. Curated by Niki Pielsticker, the exhibition forms part of Vorspiel (CTM / transmediale).
