Curators William Croghan, Benno Tubbesing and Matthieu Von Matt of American Art Projects mark their debut in Europe with America Unframed, a bold group exhibition in Berlin. On view through June 13, the show brings together a new generation of U.S.-based artists whose works reflect the evolving visual language of American culture.

Rather than focusing on medium or style, the exhibition centers on a cultural thread that binds the featured artists: a shared vocabulary shaped by Pop Art, American Realism, commercial sign painting, Hollywood, and the ever-expanding influence of the Internet.

America Unframed is the first in a planned series of transatlantic shows intended to foster deeper dialogue between the American and Berlin art scenes. “This is not a manifesto,” the organizers note, “but a reflection of the work we believe is defining something new.”

Artists featured in the show include Aaron Elvis Jupin, Alfonso Gonzalez Jr., Anabel Juárez, Billie Clarken, Dylan Solomon Kraus, Elizabeth Jaeger, Emmanuel Louisnord Desir, Francesco Igory Deiana, Hannah Taurins, Henry Gunderson, Mario Ayala and Matt McCormick.
