Latest news from Art at KWS

Between 2pm and 5pm, the newly opened exhibition SCREENPLAY by the Stumpf Group at NEWCOMER presents a multiverse of sound and image productions. It creates new spatial and sensory experiences between indoor and outdoor spaces.

Jan Neukirchen and Christian Lohre are Gruppe Stumpf. Since 2014, they have been operating in the field of tension between sculpture, installation, sound art and performance.

Especially for NEWCOMER, the artists have developed a concept that separates the interior and exterior spaces of the gallery, but also reconnects them. In this way, they allow the controversial features mentioned above to interact with each other.

Small commonplace situations often fade into the background in daily life. With her artistic categories of painting and drawing, photography and video, or as an object sculpturally formed in ceramics and porcelain, Sabine Müller brings these into the viewer's focus.

The exhibition can be seen until November 10 in the rooms of the NEWCOMER KWS Art Lounge in Tiedexer Straße in Einbeck.

Katharina Kühne examines the structures of life. She interprets them in her artistic work in a painterly, installative and sculptural way. "Based on an admiration for our planet and the complex systems that make it a habitable place for us humans, I would like to depict the beauty and diversity of the earth and at the same time encourage us to reflect on our treatment of the environment," she says.

Spring invites you to take a stroll through downtown Einbeck on a Sunday afternoon. On April 16, between 3 and 5 p.m., art can be enjoyed at several locations: The NEWCOMER KWS Art Lounge, the StadtMuseum and the Kunsthaus will open their current exhibitions.

With the new exhibition at the NEWCOMER KWS Art Lounge in Einbeck, the artist is taking visitors on a journey into his large-format image worlds. Entitled "Hidden Places," the photographs can be seen in the rooms in Tiedexer Straße until December 30.

Camera-less photography has been the focus of the latest exhibition at the NEWCOMER KWS Art Lounge in Einbeck since August 25. Johnny Linder's photographic images are created the chemical, physical way without the use of a camera. "Instead of fixing illusionary snapshots of reality, I am looking for images that deal with materiality, durability and time," says the artist.

One last opportunity to view the exhibition "bara gaman" in the NEWCOMER KWS Art Lounge and the artist talk with Philipp Valenta.

Is everything on display at the KWS Art Lounge in Tiedexer Straße in Einbeck just for the fun of it? The title of conceptual artist Philipp Valenta’s exhibition suggests this, since „bara gaman“ is Icelandic and means „all fun“. In his multimedia and expansive works, Valenta succeeds in translating frictions, oddities and problems into images and sounds. The ostensibly humorous title of the exhibition is interpreted fatalistically and shows that not everything is „bara gaman – just fun“ indeed.

Conceptual artist Philipp Valenta has been investigating Icelands relationship between economy and ecology, analysing and questioning critical phenomena and processes, some of which extend far beyond the borders of the state.

The joint fascination of three colleagues for the special aesthetics of the perspectives that can be perceived in everyday work developed into a creative project that has motivated many other colleagues to take part. Next Friday, Sept. 24, 2021 from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m., the Art meets Science team will be on site for visitors.

The joint fascination of three colleagues for the special aesthetics of the perspectives that can be perceived in the daily work developed into a creative project that motivated many other colleagues to take part. "Art meets Science" with more than 200 pictures has already been exhibited in KWS' new research building in 2020. Starting September 4, NEWCOMER will present the works and document the creative process.

The exhibition "On time at forever!" by Kaiserring scholar Alexander Iskin is coming to an end. Next Sunday, 25.07.2021 from 13.00 to 18.00 and for the finissage on Friday, 30.07.2021 from 17.00 to 20.00, interested visitors:inside have once again the opportunity to dive into the colorful world of interrealism. On Saturday, 24.07.2021 the NEWCOMER KWS Art Lounge will be closed. From 31.07. to 03.09.2021 the gallery will go on summer break.

A virtual cultural moment has now been created in the new premises of the NEWCOMER KWS Art Workshop right next to the Art Lounge in Tiedexer Straße in Einbeck: a video entitled "Spring Awakening - Reading with Julia Hansen". The actress and singer recites German and English poetry on the beginning of spring. "Poetry is music, is rhythm, is emotion captured in linguistic images," says Julia Hansen at the beginning of the roughly one-hour video, which can be found on the Art at KWS YouTube channel until June 17.

What is the current relationship between virtual and physical reality in our lives? The artist Alexander Iskin has been dealing with this question for years, has found the concept of inter-reality for the hybrid forms of everyday life and introduced it into art as inter-realism.
