BEING
Staatliche Kunsthalle Baden-Baden
Lichtentaler Allee 8a - Baden-Baden
19.7.2013 - 27.10,2013
Kunsthalle Bielefeld
Artur-Ladebeck-Straße 5 - Bielefeld
4.8.2013 - 20.10.2013
In two simultaneous exhibitions in the summer of 2013 the Staatliche Kunsthalle Baden-Baden and the Kunsthalle in Bielefeld will feature murals dating from the 1960s onward. Artists’ interest in the space outside of the classic artistic framework—the "exit from the painting," as Laszlo Glozer observed about twentieth-century art—indicates the explosive power of this pioneering art form.
This exhibition, titled "For the Time Being," begins with the reconstruction of outstanding works of art by Sol LeWitt, Lawrence Weiner, and Jeppe Hein alongside a comprehensive collection of archival material, documenting exhibitions that have taken place in our exhibition galleries in the past. The Kunsthalle’s particular architectural structure and the sequence of its rooms has always been amenable to realizing temporary on-site installations and murals. Looking back on important installations and interventions of artists here at our galleries, the works of artists such as Daniel Buren, Günther Förg, Hamish Fulton, Jeppe Hein, Gerhard Merz, Helmut Middendorf, Blinky Palermo, Karin Sander and K.R.H. Sonderborg stand out - all artists who have exhibited at the Kunsthalle since its founding at the very beginning of the 20th century.
Once considered a rebellious gesture toward the art market, with the reconstruction of outstanding works of art by Sol LeWitt, Lawrence Weiner, and Jeppe Hein alongside a comprehensive collection of archival material, documenting exhibitions that have taken place in our exhibition galleries in the past. The exhibition “For the Time Being” will be accompanied by an extensive catalogue, produced in cooperation with the Kunsthalle Bielefeld.
Artists: Franz Ackermann, Elmgreen & Dragset, Jeppe Hein, Pierre Huyghe, Gabriel Kuri, Malene Landgreen, Liz Larner, Sol LeWitt, Christl Mudrak, Nedko Solakov and Lawrence Weiner, as well as documentation of works by Holger Bunk, Daniel Buren, Günther Förg, Hamish Fulton, Michaela Melián, Gerhard Merz, Helmut Middendorf, Blinky Palermo, Giuseppe Penone, Tobias Rehberger, Karin Sander, K.R.H. Sonderborg and Corinne Wasmuht.
