Plant Dreaming Deep Canada 2017 7:11 min In poetic images, Plant Dreaming Deep exposes the exhausting transitional phases of loneliness, insecurity and isolation. By means of analogue video synthesis, fine-pored textures and washed out veils of colour were created, which find a suitable complement in the pulsating soundscape of Emilie Payeur. Like misunderstood or unprocessed […]
Rendezvous with an Impulse
Starting out from Thomas Bayrle and his “aesthetic rigour of the grid” and from the “manic seriality” (Marius Babias, Kunstforum International, 1999) which has been groundbreaking for a younger generation of artists, the exhibition opens a view towards current creative processes under the influence of overlapping digital and analogue painting praxis. The aesthetics of novel […]
Letizia Romanini
Letizia Romanini conceives arrangements and processes to visualize conditions and dimensions – such as time, chance or light – that have an enduring formative influence on our lives but are not directly tangible. Her studio functions as a kind of laboratory in which she observes, experiments and analyzes: in this way, for example, she visually […]

HYBRID Germany 2015/ 2016 10:03 min The film Hybrid takes place in the fictitious city of Stevia in the year 3000: Using their media installation LIFE 3.0 as a film set, both artists created a future scenario in which the world is populated by “normal” people and hybrid beings of humans, flora and fauna. Along […]
David Escalona
In his site-specific project COLD FEVER, Escalona weaves a network of metaphors, and succeeds in creating images which are almost impossible to describe in language and words. New approaches to the discourse around illness, weakness and vulnerability are presented as an alternative to the norm of our world and its tendency towards self-optimization. Escalona’s installative cosmos […]
Anne Zahalka
Australian artist Anne Zahalka lived on her own for the first time during a working stay at Künstlerhaus Bethanien in 1986/87, separated from everything that was familiar to her in a country with a strange culture and language. She found enjoyment in this sense of ‘being foreign’ and the resultant anonymity, which enabled her to […]
Zahra Rashid
Zahra Rashid works with drawing, printing techniques and installation, concerning herself above all with the reproduction and multiple representation of objects in various media. Rashid’s artistic practice is founded on an ongoing experimental working process in the studio. In this sense, the artist understands her exhibitions as an opportunity to represent this process, by highlighting its […]
Josée Pedneault
Glazial-Kosmogonie is a multi-element installation. The various images are not what they purport to be; they invite the viewer to question the nature of what they see. It combines photographs with extracts of historical materials to examine constructs of knowledge and truth. The project departs from the early 20th century pseudo-science “World Ice Theory (Welteislehre)”, […]
Andrea Brandão
An uncertain image is by definition unreliable. An image can be true or fake and we as a contemporary society, saturated by deceiving images, need to be critical about them in order to overcome a shallow, one-dimensional experience. Andrea Brandão’s exhibition UNCERTAIN IMAGE questions and explores the effects of such true and false (self-)images. A […]
