TIM BERRESHEIM | Kunsthalle Bielefeld & Museum Marta Herford

Zwischen Pixel und Pigment - Hybride Malerei in postdigitalen Zeiten,

The exhibition, developed jointly by the Museum Marta Herford and the Kunsthalle Bielefeld and taking place simultaneously at both venues, is dedicated to post-digital hybrid painting and thus reflects our hybrid post-digital present, anchored between the digital and the analog. In this large-scale collaboration, the focus is on a painterly way of thinking that has expanded considerably, especially in the last ten years, through the equal interweaving of content and technology of the hybrid. The international artists fundamentally question the traditional medium of painting. To what extent do the changes influence materialities, image-media structures and aesthetics? How do hybrid spaces, bodies that have become fluid and a feeling of being in-between find pictorial correspondences? With the Kunstakademie Münster as the third project partner, museum practice, academic teaching and research are combined in an experimental way.

With works by Sónia Almeida, Tim Berresheim, Salomé Chatriot, Vivian Greven, Wade Guyton, Tishan Hsu, Jacqueline Humphries, Charlotte Johannesson, KAYA (Kerstin Brätsch/Debo Eilers), Peter Kogler, Vera Molnar, Mukenge/Schellhammer, Laura Owens, Seth Price, Rafael Rozendaal, Pieter Schoolwerth, Amy Sillman, Avery Singer, Cheyney Thompson, Philipp Timischl, Corinne Wasmuht, Anicka Yi and others.



TIM BERRESHEIM & JOHANNES BRUS | Museum für Photografie Braunschweig

Back to where we have started from, curated by Barbara Hofmann-Johnson, June 28 - August 18, 2024, Museum für Photografie Braunschweig

As part of the 40th anniversary of the Museum für Photographie Braunschweig, the exhibition Back to where we have started from aims to highlight the special significance of the Braunschweig University of Art for contemporary artistic photography in the international art scene. The exhibition focuses on photography and video art by artists whose careers are linked to the HBK Braunschweig, who studied, taught and still teach at the renowned university or are involved in a special exchange with each other within the city of Braunschweig. Within the debate on artistic photography and its various current and historical visual languages, media translations, social references and installation-based staging possibilities, the Museum für Photographie Braunschweig has always presented young positions alongside solo exhibitions and thematic group exhibitions. There has always been a special collaboration with the Braunschweig University of Art.
