State of Matter
The artists in the exhibition 鈥淪tate of Matter鈥 at K眉nstlerhaus Dortmund initially appear to adopt disparate positions, whether through their use of apparently unrelated media or distinct pictorial languages, but on closer inspection a number of shared conditions emerge: a state of limbo, fluctuations in temporal registers of consciousness, and a sense of separation between the body and the space surrounding it. What ultimately connects the individual works is that they each tackle the idea of energy, addressing charge, usage and potential in a variety of different contexts. 鈥淪tate of Matter鈥 is a thematic exhibition whose theme is ultimately buried deep within the characteristics and potentialities of the works, rather than at a surface level 鈥 the state of matter principle is thus the curatorial objective.
Participating artists:
Onno Dirker und Christian van der Kooy
Elisabeth Heil
Fee Klei脽
Fabian Nehm
