Nachtruhe: David L. Johnson

Galerie Thomas Schulte presents _Nachtruhe_, a solo exhibition by David L. Johnson bringing together sound works, subtractive sculpture, printed matter, and photography produced in and around public and private parks in Philadelphia, New York, and Berlin. Across these three cities, Johnson's work documents and intervenes in shifting conditions of access to green space, examining how nighttime curfews and other forms of control shape the boundaries of public space. Moving between visible barriers and less perceptible forms of control, _Nachtruhe_ considers how these boundaries are produced and enforced over time and across geographies. Through acts of removal, displacement, field recording, and remapping, Johnson traces how they extend beyond the sites and conditions they ostensibly regulate.
