SCHAUWERK Sindelfingen exhibition in Germany

Exhibition  at the Schauwerk Sindelfingen Museum in Northern Germany
https://www.schauwerk-sindelfingen.de/en/exhibitions/preview/detail_29824.html

The duration of the exhibition will be 22.09.2024 - 27.04.2025.
The exhibition shows works by four artists that were created 
as part of a six-month artist residency at the Schaufler Lab @TU Dresden.
There, young scientists and artists conduct research together on current technologies, 
their origins and effects on modern life. The cooperation between THE SCHAUFLER FOUNDATION and
the TU Dresden is a forum for a forward-looking dialogue between science, art and society.
... Participating artists:
Christian Kosmas Mayer
Anton Ginzburg
Esmeralda Conde Ruiz
Rosa Barba
Curated by Svenja Frank and Philipp Singer

Science – research – art. These are THE SCHAUFLER FOUNDATION’s main focus areas. Peter Schaufler established the Foundation in 2005. It provides for the museum SCHAUWERK Sindelfingen and is actively engaged in the university and social field. At the Technical University of Dresden, the Foundation supports the Schaufler Lab@TU Dresden. It is a forum for a forward-looking dialogue between science, art and society intertwining technical and artistic subjects and placing them in a university context.

 

In the lab, young scientists and artists research together on current technologies and their origins and effects on the modern living environment. The exhibition at SCHAUWERK features works by Christian Kosmas Mayer, Anton Ginzburg, Esmeralda Conde Ruiz and Rosa Barba, who had been artists in residence between 2020 and 2024. Some of the works on display were created during the time in Dresden in cooperation with the collections of the Technical University as well as with scientific institutes or university institutions.

 

Christian Kosmas Mayer creates installations and crossmedia works in the tension-filled field of nature, culture and science. In 2020, as the first artist in residence, he explored ideas of immortality. Here, the focus of his research was on the voice and its meaning in concepts of the afterlife – from ancient Egypt to the present day. For his multi-channel sound installation Maa Kheru, Mayer used acoustic speech synthesis to create sounds that date back to the 2000-year-old vocal organ of an Egyptian mummy. Thus, he also refers to the voices of the deceased, which can be revived today via the use of AI in digital form.

 

The New York-based artist Anton Ginzburg works with film, sculpture, painting and graphic art. In 2021, he created a series of algorithm-based colour studies in Dresden. For SCHAUWERK, Ginzburg further developed these studies and realised them as large-format murals. Additionally, he applied a combination of sentiment analysis and mathematical algorithms to create 3D sculptural forms inspired by the film scripts of “American Psycho” and “Trainspotting.” These sculptures were then produced using large-scale 3D printing technology, continuing the tradition of modernist formal experimentation rooted in technology and concrete data.

 

Esmeralda Conde Ruiz is an award-winning interdisciplinary composer and audiovisual artist. Recurring themes in her work are language, the individual and the collective as well as the role and effect of technology on our changing society. She predominantly uses the voice as material, specialising in large-scale choirs and pairing singers with field recordings of unacknowledged, man-made noises in our everyday environments. During Conde Ruiz’s residency at the Schaufler Lab, dealing with Artificial Intelligence and sound led her to explore server farms which contain the sonic traces of our digital footprints.

 

Rosa Barba's interest focuses on the relationship between film, space and the viewer. Her films move between experimental documentation and fictional narrative. In 2023, the artist explored the concept of the archive and the possibilities of AI in the lab. Another project is still being implemented. SCHAUWERK presents her video work Inside the Outset: Evoking a Space of Passage (2021), which was created in Cyprus. Barba investigates states of limits in landscape photographs that manifest themselves in embattled spaces.
