Ee 7 - exhibition. ‘Gegenstand’, Halle (Saale)
'Gegenstand'
Triftstraße 19A - 06114 Halle (Saale) -Tyskland
May 21st to June 11th 2016
The exhibition gathered objects, architectural models and spatial fragments. The collection of works reflected diverse approaches to architecture and art and pointed towards other ways of proposing space. Through the juxtaposition of the artefacts various spaces and locations were linked in and to the site. In-betweens or even formal negative space of shifting scales were superimposed, and thinking through matter as well as loss or gain of aura in production and reproduction techniques were at stake.
The groundfloor at Triftstraße 19A is a project space that is owned and run by the architects Charlotte Erckrath and Maik Ronz. The project space is at the same time an exhibition space, a workshop and an on-going poetic restoration project, where space and textures are apparently ever changing. The exhibition added to the space as gesamtkunstwerk and became part of the architectural situation for a while.
