Exhibition

No other cure none other than words in talking

07.03.–08.06.2024

The exhibition No other cure none other than words in talking, curated by Christina Lehnert, presents historical and contemporary artists whose works are interlinked by the topics of language, memory, and the experience of being foreign.

The exhibition invites visitors to read, listen, and speak, transforming the institution into a place featuring the multivoiced narratives of these artists. The show opens a critical space that makes connections between artistic practices and experiences, between memories and periods, and between history and the present. Especially in periods in which communication is characterized by new terms that create atmospheres and form opinions but in which collective discussions no longer seem possible, the practices of these artists raise our awareness of the significance and importance of words when speaking with one another.

An exhibition by Theresa Hak Kyung Cha, Thuy-Han Nguyen-Chi, Evelyn Taocheng Wang and Andrew Yong Hoon Lee. With a composition by Andrew Yong Hoon Lee and Thuy-Han Nguyen-Chi. With works by Franziska Aigner, Audrey Chen, Lotus L. Kang, Hanne Lippard, Tanasgol Sabbagh, Fabian Saul, Hyunhye Seo, Senthuran Varatharajah, Alex Zhang Hungtai and Ketuta Alexi-Meskhishvili.
