Press release

 

This exhibition - a cooperation between artists from weißensee kunsthochschule berlin and art history students from Humboldt-University - explores new ways of curating. Out of their democratic exchange arises the formal structure of the exhibition, where every artist is given 4,16 sqm to show her/his artwork. The title HECKE refers to the interplay between two gardens seemingly separated by a hedge, yet actually thriving on the exchange that is taking place at this lively and dynamic border. Over the past six months we have been growing this metaphorical hedge - at times more wild, at others more cultivated.

 

Artists: Irene Fernández Arcas, Oliver Arendt, Magdalena Berger, Annemarie Braun, Kiwan Choi, Julia Dreier, Ann-Charlotte Gerlach, Rahel Goetsch, Nina Langbehn, Tillmann Lange, Lukas Maibier, Rei Matsushima, Natalie Neumaier, Uy Nguyen, Sebastian Pöge, Gintare Simutyte, Muriel Tauber, Manuel Tayarini, Laura Vargas, Eleonora Weber, Seoyoung Won, Yanchaun Yang, Yehudit Yinhar, Oskar Zaumseil
