Description/Abstract:	Artwork: 15 individual images, screenprinted on grained gold, framed in ash frames with glass, text on inside of glass Book Publication: Mörel Publishing (UK). He only feels the black and white of it (2016) is based on a 1973 Associated Press photograph of a damaged section of the Berlin Wall. West Germans had attacked the Wall in response to the sound of East German guns fired at fleeing East Germans. The archive image pictures East German military guards and border policemen repairing the Wall. Over several months, Klenz repeatedly used the archive photograph to make multiple screen-prints on gold-grained aluminium.

Additional Information:	Book discussed in Art World Magazine, China, issue 310, 2016. Solo exhibition at Filet London includes a reading by Claudia Lynch, Director of Lynch Architects, 22 March 2019. The exhibition Another Spring is curated by art historian, critic and curator Dr Jean Wainwright, featuring the artists Andreas Angelidakis, Forensic Architecture, David Birkin, Layla Curtis, KennardPhillipps and Steffi Klenz. The exhibition brings together work by a group of internationally recognised artists and reflects on the current trends and broader developments of nationalist impulses in Western society, where the debated question of citizenship, the foundation for identity and political governance is tied to ultranationalist concerns and increased measures to regulate and control the movement of people across borders. The fear of national invasion and the economic erosion by an ‘outsider’ increasingly throws into question whether moving across borders will become even more difficult in years to come.
