Sierra Metro Details
Not-for-profit gallery Sierra Metro is run by curatorial collaboration. We are committed to artist-centred practice and our intention is to showcase and support emerging visual artists. We aim to engender a climate of flexibility and experimentation for everyone who exhibits in the space, and offer broad public access to contemporary art experiences and discussions. Sierra Metro was founded in 2008 by Janine Sproule and Martin Minton. Current: Peles Empire: Carmen Sylva7 August - 11 September 2011Preview: Saturday 6 August, 7pm / after party from 9pm with live music from Randan Discotheque, DJ set by Clubsoda and VJ Emlyn FirthSierra Metro presents new work by Peles Empire as part of the Edinburgh Art Festival 2011.Peles Empire is a collaborative work by London-based German artists Katharina Stoever and Barbara Wolff. Founded in Frankfurt in 2005, their work takes as its source material Peles, a Romanian castle built between 1873 and 1913.In a continued working process, Wolff and Stoever have reproduced nine different rooms from this castle, wallpapering galleries in London, Rotterdam, Antwerp, Basel, Los Angeles and Cluj with A3 colour copies of photographs of its lavish rooms. For the exhibition at Sierra Metro, Wolff and Stoever challenge the existing tenets of their project and explore a move from predominantly two-dimensional work into the realm of sculpture.
