Opening of Solo-Exhibition "Blood and Glitter" in Bamberg, Germany | Jana Margarete Schuler
The opening week of Jana Margarete Schuler’s first major solo exhibition “Between Blood and Glitter” at Kunstraum Kesselhaus in Bamberg, Germany, was a great success. Around 800 visitors attended, and the highlight was a live wrestling event with eight female fighters from Mexico, Austria, Italy, and Germany right in the exhibition space. The acclaim extended beyond the opening: the Süddeutsche Zeitung, one of Germany’s leading national newspapers, published an enthusiastic review of the show.
Focusing on female wrestlers in Ciudad Juárez, one of the world’s most dangerous cities, “Between Blood and Glitter” will remain on view in Bamberg until September 7, 2025, before traveling internationally. Next, it will be presented in Mexico, at a gallery in Ciudad Juárez, opening on March 8, 2026, the International Women’s Day.
