As part of the current exhibition ‘Earthy Liquids and Heavy Metal [Hypersleep]’, the author Olga Hohmann will read her new text: ‘Shapeshifters’. In it, Hohmann takes up motifs from the artist Lisa Seebach and processes them in her text into her own literary position.
Following the reading, curator Dr. Dominik Bais and Olga Hohmann will talk about the exhibition, different literary approaches to Seebach’s work and the new catalog.
Afterwards, there will be an opportunity to visit the exhibition free of charge and talk to the author or curator over a drink.
Please note: The event overlaps with the museum’s monthly public tour. However, all guests on the public tour can take part in the reading and discussion after the museum visit before going to the Obereichstätt site. Both events are coordinated with each other
About the author:
Olga Hohmann studied theater directing at the Ernst Busch Academy of Dramatic Arts in Berlin and fine arts at the Piet Zwart Institute in Rotterdam. Her poetic lecture performances, often accompanied by music, have aspects of ritual and salon culture.
As an archaeologist of her own biography, she devotes herself to everyday phenomena that are always on the borderline between personal experience and philosophical reflection.
About the exhibition:
Lisa Seebach: Earthy Liquids and Heavy Metal [Hypersleep]
The works of sculptor Lisa Seebach (*1981) unfold a dystopian space that leads from the measurable world into an imaginary reality. Abstract and mysteriously distorted, the sculptures suggest objects such as gas cylinders or windows, which thus become aesthetic actors in a poetic and enigmatic staging.
This creates a paradoxical scenery full of associative meta-narratives between post-apocalyptic science fiction and black utopia, inviting visitors to develop their own fictional narratives.
