RADAR II. Current projects from art schools

January 31 to April 12, 2020 [VIRTUAL EXHIBITION ONLINE]

From January 31 to April 12, 2020, the Kunstforum der TU Darmstadt will present current projects by renowned art academies for the second time. The exhibition shows works that have attracted attention during the annual tours. Artistic positions from all disciplines are represented, so this time painting and installation also meet performance and sound.

The craftsmanship of art and the use of different materials connects the selected works. They make the exhibition space atmospherically and aesthetically experienceable in a surprising way. The supporting programme is supplemented by performances that are realised for one evening only.

With: Max Brück, Zoé Mahlau, Saya Schulzen and Carla Vollmers (Academy of Art and Design Offenbach), Kevin Michalski (Academy of Art Mainz), Immanuel Birkert and Sóley Ragnarsdóttir (Städelschule Frankfurt) and Štěpán Brož (Brno University of Technology, Faculty of Fine Arts, Czech Republic).
