Within the construction phase of the Weltkunstzimmer, the new art centre of the HPZ Foundation, we present the Experimentation Room, as another building block of the multi-committed programme.

This laboratory of site-specific installations opens with the group exhibition DYSSOMNIA - Spatial Interventions, featuring artists working in the Rhineland.

DYSSOMNIA - Spatial Interventions is the result of an intensive exploration by established and emerging artists of the urban open spaces under construction in a former baking factory. On two floors in the annex of the former CON-SUM site, they open up spaces on well over 500sqm - with, among other things, dirty, tiled cold storage rooms and a dark, old rocker bar.

The artists thus open up a view of the Weltkunstzimmer that is not yet known. In its spatial aesthetics, the dirty, gloomy and historically charged architecture triggers deep fascination and at the same time understands itself as a challenge for its performance.
