KESSELHAUS

Exhibition Project IRRReal
Cooperation with art festival 48h Neukölln
22  – 24 June 2018

The group exhibition brings together 19 positions in contemporary art and is curated by Dr. Martin Steffens.

The arts have always been positioned between the poles of realism and fiction, veracity and appearance. A clear classification is rarely possible: even seemingly realistic painting is – to use René Magritte’s expression – simply an image and an illusion, not actually what it represents. Things, deeds, or spaces become reality only with the anticipation of their beholders. Art begins in the eye, heart, and/or brain of the beholder and thus becomes “real”.

Registration in person is required for the virtual reality experiences.
