The exhibition delves deep into the captivating world of shells and snails as seen through the lenses of iconic modern photographers like Edward Weston and Imogen Cunningham. This pioneering showcase assembles a rich tapestry of images, tracing humanity’s longstanding fascination with these natural forms—from their mathematical elegance to their cosmic symbolism. Grounded in Alfred Ehrhardt’s seminal works, including his influential books “Muscheln und Schnecken” and “Geprägte Form,” the exhibition also highlights the intersection of art and science, featuring innovative techniques like X-ray photography and the New Objectivity movement. Beyond mere visual appeal, the show offers an exploration of cultural significance, inviting viewers to reflect on the beauty and complexity of these “structural forms in nature,” culminating in the screening of Ehrhardt’s award-winning film “Tanz der Muscheln.”Requiem: Cats, Portraits explores artist Yokoo Tadanori’s profound connections with departed friends, family, and beloved cats, tracing his influential career from the 1960s to the present. Born in 1936, Yokoo’s artistic journey has always been shaped by deep personal relationships and collaborative endeavors across various creative fields. The exhibition features portraits and personal statements, alongside items like the Tama, Come Home series, dedicated to his late cat. Visitors will also see examples of his enduring friendship with designer Issey Miyake, including iconic invitation designs from the 1970s onwards. This unique presentation invites viewers to reflect on how cherished relationships transcend time, influencing an artist’s vision and offering a glimpse into a timeless “Yokoo World.”Nissky. Horizon is a compelling exhibition at the Institute of Russian Realistic Art that explores the intricate relationship between contemporary art and traditional Russian realism. Featuring a diverse array of artists, the exhibition invites viewers to engage with works that reflect on cultural heritage while pushing artistic boundaries. Each piece serves as a dialogue between past and present, showcasing how contemporary creators reinterpret classical themes and techniques. This fusion not only honors the legacy of Russian art but also challenges perceptions, encouraging a deeper understanding of identity and artistic expression in today’s globalized context. Through thought-provoking installations and evocative imagery, Nissky. Horizon celebrates the enduring relevance of realism in contemporary discourse.Unveiling the transformative journey of Protestantism, this exhibition showcases around 150 artifacts from the State Museum of the History of Religion, bringing to life the pivotal moments and influential figures, such as Martin Luther, that shaped this movement. Spanning from the 16th century to the present, it delves into the synergy between religion and culture, revealing how Protestant ideals influenced art, literature, and social change. This rich array of historical items not only contextualizes the theological underpinnings of the Reformation but also illustrates its enduring legacy in contemporary society. It is an enlightening exploration that challenges the boundaries between faith and creativity, inviting visitors to reflect on the profound impact of Protestantism on our world today.Can anger and rage be justified in a world riddled with oppression and inequality? Are these emotions destructive forces or vital catalysts for social change? As democracy faces crises and populism gains ground globally, these questions have sparked renewed debate. Contemporary artists have responded, using their work to navigate and challenge the pressing issues of our time. The exhibition ‘Time for Outrage!’ in Düsseldorf explores these questions through six thematic blocks: Right-wing Shift, Trumpism, Protest, Postcolonialism, Feminism, and Discrimination. Across a diverse range of mediums — including installations, drawings, paintings, sculptures, photography, and video art — 40 international artists immerse viewers in the visceral realms of protest, social dissent, and public anger. The exhibition doesn’t just present anger as a raw emotion; it portrays it as a vehicle for dialogue, resistance, and empowerment in the face of systemic injustice. A substantial portion of the works on display come from the collection of entrepreneur and collector Florian Peters-Messer, whose commitment to socially engaged art amplifies the urgent messages these pieces convey.

Museum Choreography

Muuseumi Koreograafia
Estonia Tartu 2018 53

This innovative exhibition reimagines the traditional museum experience through the lens of dance and choreography, inviting audiences to become active participants in the artistic dialogue. It foregrounds the unpredictable interplay between viewer movement and static artworks, showcasing how personal histories, cultural contexts, and physical presence transform the museum into a living, dynamic space. By exploring the nuances of how we look at and engage with art, the exhibition challenges visitors to reflect on their own movement and interactions within the gallery. This exhibition is a thought-provoking exploration of the embodied experience of art, making the viewer an integral part of the creative narrative.

Why should you watch this?

In today’s rapidly evolving cultural landscape, this exhibition stands out by positioning dance and choreography as vital means of understanding and engaging with art in the museum context. By centering the audience’s experience, it reflects our collective need for connection and interaction in spaces that often feel static and distant. In an era where individual perspectives and cultural backgrounds shape our understanding of art, this exhibition invites viewers to reclaim their role, reminding us that museums are not just repositories of art but vibrant environments shaped by human presence and movement. As the act of looking becomes more layered and complex in our digital world, this exhibition challenges us to reconsider our relationship with art, encouraging a deeper engagement that resonates well beyond the gallery walls.
