Richard Paulick’s career was a mosaic of contradictions — modernist Bauhaus ideals alongside socialist industrialism, avant-garde innovation woven into national architectural traditions. His life was marked by war, shifting ideologies, and forced relocations, yet his dedication to architecture never wavered. Paulick emerged as one of the most influential architects of the German Democratic Republic, breathing new life into war-torn cities like Dresden and Berlin, while also shaping the industrial landscapes of smaller East German towns. Remarkably, his work extended far beyond Europe’s borders, leaving a legacy in pre-communist Shanghai as well. The exhibition at the Bauhaus Dessau Foundation, a beacon of German avant-garde architecture, vividly captures Paulick’s lifelong quest for self-realization in the face of the political and social currents of the 20th century. Through his work, the complexities of personal and ideological resilience unfold, offering viewers a window into both the man and the turbulent world he helped to shape.Yokoo Tadanori: State of Emergency Declaration explores the artist’s prescient depictions of tense situations where the line between fact and fiction dissolves. Long before the novel coronavirus crisis, Yokoo Tadanori repeatedly created works that now resonate with contemporary global events, reflecting a timeless human experience of uncertainty. This exhibition features his impactful paintings alongside an installation of his recent online series, With Corona, which incorporates imagery like masks in a direct artistic response to the virus. Visitors can observe how Yokoo’s vision, spanning from earlier works to current creations, challenges perceptions of reality, encouraging reflection on art’s power to interpret and shape our understanding of the world during moments of profound change.The Human Condition exhibition, a thought-provoking exploration of contemporary art that delves into the complexities of human experience. This showcase features a diverse collection of works that challenge perceptions and provoke dialogue about identity, society, and the emotional landscape of modern life. Each piece serves as a mirror, reflecting the multifaceted nature of existence in today’s world. Through innovative mediums and striking visuals, the artists invite viewers to engage deeply with themes of vulnerability, connection, and resilience. This exhibition is not just a display of art; it’s an immersive journey that encourages introspection and a deeper understanding of what it means to be human in an ever-evolving society.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.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.

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.
