Group Exhibition
UmStand der Dinge: A State of Affairs
Let’s play. Lass uns spielen. Let us pretend. Let’s invent a set of terms and then let us believe in the terms we’ve invented, shall we? Let’s make these terms and conditions apply, but only providing that they apply here, where we can implement the very logic that birthed it all. Let’s go with the flow; roll in the zeitgeist of play, but let’s not get blasé. Let’s take it all seriously, because play is serious.
A collaborative exhibition between the Department of Painting and Sculpture at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) Kumasi, Ghana and Hochschule für Bildende Künste (HFBK) Hamburg, Germany. The objects, paintings, texts, videos, and material experiments that make up this show intertwine in curious ways as they form volatile landscapes expanding between the virtual, the physical, the imaginable and the utterly strange.
With the support of HFBK Hamburg and Goethe-Institut Ghana.
