Loretta Fahrenholz: Music Videos for Kim Gordon
Géza, 306 Maujer
In conjunction with Kim Gordon’s solo exhibition Count Your Chickens, Amant presents, for one night only, a program of music videos directed and edited by Berlin-based artist and filmmaker Loretta Fahrenholz.
Fahrenholz and Kim Gordon have collaborated on a series of music videos for over a decade, culminating in a tour video in 2020, which will be presented alongside Sketch Artist (2019), Earthquake (2019), Hungry Baby (2019), Paprika Pony (2019) and Murdered Out (2016). Presented in Amant’s courtyard as a video installation, their five music videos will be shown chronologically throughout the night. From Fahrenholz’s signature picture-in-picture technique employed in Murdered Out, to the pixelated footage of Earthquake, shot through security footage, to the stark visuals of Sketch Artist, a music video which sees Gordon starring as a rideshare driver moving through the streets of LA, the program highlights the distinct collaborative aesthetics of Fahrenholz and Gordon.
Kim Gordon works across disciplines and distinct cultural fields, including art, design, writing, fashion, music, and film and video, both as an actress and director. Gordon studied at the Otis Art Institute in Los Angeles in the late 1970s and has continued to work as an artist since. Recent exhibitions include Object of Projection at gnration, Braga (2025); Object of Projection at The Substation, Melbourne, and Brisbane Powerhouse (2024); RUMORS at O-Town House, Los Angeles (2024); Kim Gordon for Design Office: Is this on the approved playlist at JUBG, Cologne and Kim Gordon for Design Office feat. In House Photography by Josephine Pryde at Museum im Bellpark, Kriens (both 2022); the Busan Biennale at the Museum of Contemporary Art Busan (2020); The Bonfire at 303 Gallery, New York (2020); She bites her tender mind, Irish Museum of Modern Art, Dublin and Lo Fi Glamour at The Andy Warhol Museum, Pittsburgh (both 2019).
