The highlight of the multi-day lab will be the public presentation on Friday, June 13th at 7:00 PM, where visitors are invited to an evening-long public tour in which the participants will provide public insights into their research, artistic practice, and theory development. The projects are accompanied by a
programmatic key question: What connects us, today and tomorrow?

The exhibition will not feature completed works, but rather sketches, research projects, performances, and actions in progress: On 1,200 square meters, visitors will gain a unique insight into the open-ended process of artistic creation. The exhibition will encompass performance, installation, drawing, video, sound, and dance—with transitions between visual and performing arts, with participatory elements and space for encounters.

In the tension between white cube and urban space, art can be experienced as a living, socially embedded process. Participation is free; the tour lasts approximately three hours. The public is free to come and go at any time. Twenty-one of the participating artists and contributors will be presenting their own projects and contributions in the second lab: Elvire Bonduelle, Rada Boukova, Bidisha Das, Kathrin Dröppelmann, Moïse Fall, Maja Funke, Balz Isler, Wanda Koller, Juri Lechthoff, Leila Orth, Marie Heleen Samrotzki and Ronan Sungeelee, Robin Meier Wiratunga, Vanessa Joan Müller, David JongSung Myung with Louretta & Dr. Schmitt, Daria Nazarenko,
Marguerite Pilven, Denise Ritter, Mohamad Moe Sabbah.

space_relations was developed together with Mischa Kuball, the Weltkunstzimmer team, and a team of international curators. It connects art institutions, urban spaces, and the public in an open laboratory that explores new forms of collaboration and participation.

With the open project space_relations, the Weltkunstzimmer and Mischa Kuball consciously want to provide space for artistic processes that negotiate and reflect our pluralistic community in a socially challenging and polarizing time. In doing so, they question how collaboration can succeed and what conditions are necessary for it.
