The exhibition Hyogo Prefectural Yokoo Emergency Hospital explores the profound connection between artist Yokoo Tadanori’s body, his life, and his creative output. Spanning his journey from sensory childhood experiences to confronting old age, the exhibition highlights Yokoo’s unique philosophy of trusting physical sensation over mental states, even in the face of numerous illnesses and injuries such as asthma and facial palsy. The museum is transformed into a hospital setting, featuring works, diaries, and sketches by Yokoo, including his prophetic With Corona series of 2020 which addressed masks. Viewers are invited to reexamine their own relationship with the physical and consider how challenges, including those of a global pandemic, can inspire resilience and artistic force. This presentation underscores the body as a truthful guide for life and art.Klaus Staeck’s exhibition offers a captivating journey through the provocative artistry that defined West Germany’s visual landscape from the late 1960s to the late 1980s. Celebrated as a political agitator, Staeck’s posters not only sparked public discourse but also reflected the turbulent social climate of the time. The display features around 180 of his striking designs, alongside early prints and three-dimensional multiples, showcasing his ability to intertwine art with activism. Each piece acts as a visual commentary on pressing societal issues, daring viewers to confront the challenges of their era. Staeck’s work serves as a reminder of the profound impact that art can have in shaping collective memory and igniting conversations long after the initial scandal has faded.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.CLUBS of the FUTURE explores the legacy of communal spaces, particularly the Houses of Culture across Europe and the former GDR, as it reflects on contemporary practices of collectivity and reform. Emerging from research into the 1,800 GDR Houses of Culture—two-thirds of which were closed post-reunification—the project addresses the societal gaps exploited by right-wing groups. Featuring innovative workshop formats, the exhibition includes Ina Wudtke’s video Greif zur Feder (Grab a Pen), Andrea Pichl’s Klub Zukunft (Future Club), and Ming Wong’s KONTAKTHOPE. Highlighting future-oriented projects, it also showcases garden initiatives like Katya Gardea Browne’s A Floating Garden & Exchange of Seeds, emphasizing the ongoing negotiation of shared civic spaces in times of transition. More at https://www.clubsofthefuture.net/The group exhibition presents a compelling exploration of how art provides resilience in times of personal and societal crisis. The exhibition features works by renowned artists like Gustav Metzger, Shusaku Arakawa, and Alina Szapocznikow, each of whom faced extreme adversity and transformed their experiences into profound artistic statements. Whether addressing environmental destruction, illness, or existential threats, these artists used creativity as a means to survive and challenge the limits of human endurance. The exhibition emphasizes the power of art to propose alternative perspectives when the world seems trapped in binary thinking. By engaging with radical artistic responses to crisis, visitors are invited to reflect on how creativity can offer strength, hope, and new possibilities for navigating the uncertainties of modern life. Art, in this context, becomes more than expression — it becomes a strategy for survival and transformation.
