Description: Hollywood and Silicon Valley, palms, sea, blue skies; California is 'a landof milk and honey'--with Villa Aurora right in the middle. In the 1940s, theformer exile residence of Marta and Lion Feuchtwanger was a meeting pointfor European intellectuals. Today, it is an artists' residence that embodiesmuch more than 'California Dreaming.' Villa Aurora celebrates its twentiethanniversary with an exhibition and accompanying book titled 'CheckpointCalifornia.' Organized in collaboration with Deutsche Bank KunstHalle, theproject presents work by nine Villa Aurora fellows--Nairy Baghramian, RosaBarba, Peggy Buth, Sabine Hornig, Christian Jankowski, Michael Just, PhilippLachenmann, Albrecht Schafer, and Thomas Struth--that unfold experiencesof transit and exile, transatlantic differences and contradictions. Theart is discussed in essays by the curators Hans-Jorg Clement, Alexandra vonStosch, and Laurence Rickels as well as contributions by additional authors.'
