Network Portraits

Network Portraits

solo show by Olia Lialina curated by Noemi Garay & Sakrowski

10 September – 03 October 2026

Network Portraits explores the labor and transformations required to keep websites and digital cultures alive. This includes practices such as archiving, re:mixing, re:enactment, distributed hosting, and the circulation of content across different browsers, platforms, and infrastructures. At the same time, the exhibition questions the assumption that everything must remain permanently online. What does it mean for the web to stay “alive,” and what kinds of transformations does this demand? Olia Lialina traces networks that reflect the contexts in which the artist and her works exist at a specific moment in time. These constellations are shaped by personal relationships and social networks, technical conditions such as software, platforms, and browser infrastructures, as well as aesthetic influences. For the exhibition at panke.gallery, the works are situated within processes of contextual shifts and transformations: media remediations, jumps from one medium to another, from one platform or server to another, and across different media formats. These translations unfold between historical software and hardware installations, works using or reactivating legacy technologies…

Evan Roth

For six months, Evan Roth returns to the speed of the early web, on the website rather than in the feed.

01 November 2026 – 30 April 2027

After a decade devoted to slowness, in method as much as in medium, Evan Roth turns back toward speed. For six months, Roth sets aside long research in favour of work made at the pace the internet itself runs on: quick, playful and immediate, in the spirit of early net experiments, when making something and putting it online were one and the same gesture. One or two new works will appear each month. Each lives on the open web, on pages the artist controls, and is gathered here as it is released, so the residency unfolds in public, in real time. As the platforms tighten their grip of algorithmic control and surveillance, this is also a quiet act of return: to the website as self-determined infrastructure, and to the place where, for panke.gallery, net art has always happened. The residency closes in spring 2027 with an artist talk and a pop-up presentation at panke.gallery.

panke.gallery shows digital and net‑based art in Berlin‑Wedding since 2017.
