Every two months a new exhibition moves onto the walls of Orangerie Neukölln, and each one opens with a vernissage, followed by a DJ set. Meet the artist, see the work first, and stay for a glass of wine and the community.
Die VernissageThe vernissage
Flavie Guerrand photographs those close to her in their electric and sexy drifts, from snapshots to party pictures. Her diaristic approach captures fleeting moments where vulnerability and strength intertwine, alongside a sense of play and freedom. There is desire, adrenaline, excess and frustration, sometimes loneliness. Intimacy is as much an inspiration as it is a trigger. Trust and closeness leave room for images that feel unguarded, spontaneous and alive.

Über Flavie GuerrandAbout Flavie Guerrand
Born in 1977 in France, lives and works in Berlin (Neukölln). In the middle of the 1990s Flavie Guerrand was a committed member of the French techno scene. Organizing raves parties offered her a distinct form of spectatorship. A lens that enabled insightful depictions of the underground culture and the fresh, intense and unparalleled energy that bleeds from these spaces. Rave parties were a central place of emancipation for minorities and the party a place of life necessary as much as it is for creation. This perspective is striking and evident in her work today. She only began to film and photograph the lifestyles she led some years later. With almost only archives of her previous clandestine nightlife, many flyers and audio recordings, she felt the urge to capture every experience she had through her camera. Her early forays into video work featured documentation of the parties she continues to organise in her living space - an old garage - and later in a basement in an attempt to keep the legacy and the spirit of free parties. The legacy unravels further, when she moves to Berlin in 2009 and finds her space in this hotspot and breeding ground for alternative cultures and communities.
Her work was recognized in 2022 with first prizes in two international photography competitions in Italy: the Raise Your Zine festival in Naples and the 10th edition of Cdpzine in Rome. Her work is regularly exhibited internationally, with presentations in Germany, Italy, Greece, Serbia, Turkey, and the United States.
