Public Program - Expanded Ground (Ana Druwe)
10. Jun - 09. Jul
Public Program (Ana Druwe, LIAS Fellow): Expanded Ground - Kunstraum.
10. June 2025 - 9. July 2025 in parallel with the exhibition Seven Works
What happens when the institution’s keys are handed over? Which objects can be accessed and which should remain restricted to technical areas? How can university and city become more connected? Who belongs to the university?
If we regard the campus as an extended institution that connects the Kunstraum to the city of Lüneburg, some of the questions posed by the exhibition Seven Works by Wisrah C. V da R. Celestino become an invitation to test different practices that reflect how the university institutes gathering gestures. Inspired by a seminar on institutional practices, the Kunstraum is open to activities that coexist, interfere, respond, or renegotiate Celestino’s scores.
These activities make the Kunstraum archive visible, introduce other collective frequencies and temperatures to the campus, and expand the connection between the university and the city through local and collective initiatives. At the end, a workshop organized by students invites the community to reflect collectively on other ways of belonging to the university. The suggestion of each gesture expands our understanding of what an art space at Leuphana University could be as an open question on an ongoing basis.
Expanded Ground opens the Kunstraum space to multiple uses throughout the duration of Seven Works exhibition. To propose an activation, please email: shk.kunstraum@leuphana.de
The public programme developed in conjunction with the exhibition Seven Works is part of Ana Druwe’s ongoing practice-based research as an artist fellow at the Leuphana Institute of Advanced Studies (LIAS) for Culture and Society.
