After his impressive exhibition “Panthersprung” at Schultz Contemporary in Berlin, Alexander Seiler presents not only two of his both massive and grandiose ship sculptures at the Spinnerei (a former spinning mill) in Leipzig , but 6 further works. The exhibit “Triumph wieder Willen” (“Triumph against Will”)1 will be shown from 1 May to 13 June 2009. It will be opened on 30 April within the framework of the “spring tour” through the many galleries present at the location.
- It is difficult to strike the right note on this translation, thus the one I chose is rather clumsy. The German original is surely playing with Riefenstahl’s “Triumph des Willens” (Triumph of the Will); literally translated, it would be “Unwilling Triumph”. ↩
