Galerie Ron Mandos currently presents the exhibition Better Life (Ten Thousand Waves) with highly acclaimed British artist Isaac Julien. On show is the ‚Ten Thousand Waves‘ photographic series as well as the single screen video ‚The Leopard‘.

Isaac Julien’s ‚Ten Thousand Waves‘ photographic series together with the nine screen installation of the same name poetically weave together stories linking China’s ancient past and present. Through an architectural installation and a series of photographs the work explores the movement of people across countries and continents and meditates on unfinished journeys. ‚The Leopard‘ takes its title and visual starting point from Visconti’s masterpiece ‚The Leopard‘, looking at a cinematic afterlife, haunted by characters from other places and other films.
