Peles Empire is a work by Katharina Stöver and Barbara Wolff founded 2005. The project
borrows its name from the Romanian castle Peles, which copies different architectural
styles of past centuries. Peles Empire reproduces rooms from this castle in simple colour
or black and white photocopies and merges it with the rooms it inhabits. Stöver and Wolff
invite other artists to exhibit within these spaces.

For the 2D 3D 2D 3D exhibition at Camberwell Space Peles Empires is combining
different previously used wallpapers from its former spaces, in form of a wall-based
collage. The initially 3D rooms have been transformed to 2D wallpapers, and are now
returning to a 3D installation.

All artists invited have previously shown in rooms inhabited by Peles Empire. The works
shown are reinforcing the 2D/3D dialog between the wall-based Peles Empire piece and
the sculptures and objects by Bool, Downes, Mealor, Orton and Round.
