About The Artwork
ABOUT THE WORK Revolvers, pistols, semi-automatic assault rifles, machine guns: It would almost seem as if Americans can’t do without weapons. The list of weapon types is long and the demand is high. Places like Newtown (Conneticut), Aurora (Colorado), Los Angeles (California) and Sutherland Springs (Texas) have gained notoriety as a result of the shooting sprees there. And after each shooting, new weapons are purchased. It’s a flourishing trade. What is it that keeps weapons sales going? Or, if we look at it differently, what is it that makesweapons seemingly indispensable to many people? The diptych Brother & Sister (The Final Countdown) shows the most popular and most frequently purchased types of weapons in the US: the semi-automatic AR-15 (America’s Gun), which has been the mass shooter’s weapon of choice time and again,and the Colt M1911, a popular service pistol with the police and the army and ponders the question of what has to happen in society for outdated ideas to change. "Brother & Sister" (here brother) is one peace of work from 2017. These single, original piece from the Diptychon is hand signed by Dikla Stern.

Dikla Stern (*1972 in Tel Aviv) is an artist, communication scientist, and lecturer, living and working in Berlin, Germany. The exploration of society in the context of the charged dichotomy between power and oppression, law and freedom, is sometimes discreetly, but sometimes also entirely directly, a constant in the works of DIKLA STERN. These works describe societal phenomena that are perceived as “disturbed.” Contemporary themes, issues and events are subjected to artistic reflection and examined in terms of the collective influence of media, politics and history on the individual. She has received exhibition support from various institutions, including the Adrienne and Otmar Hornbach Foundation, Dieter-Kissel Foundation, and Werner-Deschauer Foundation. Her works have been exhibited at venues such as the CICA Museum in South Korea, the German Hygiene Museum in Dresden, the Potemka Gallery in Leipzig, and the 5th European Month of Photography (EmoP) in Berlin. They have also been featured in film and television, including productions such as “Altes Land” (ZDF) and “Fucking Berlin” (Netflix). Works are in the possession of private collectors, museums and companies, internationally.
