The collective exhibition Lacuna - inside a dumpling takes the production of dumplings as its central point of departure. Like the empty space surrounded by a dumpling, the project itself also functions as a lacuna. It offers a site for encounters that will become filled with narrations, animations, ceramics and objects. Beginning at noon on four Sundays during the exhibition period, the artists will activate this space with workshops and performances while simultaneously serving freshly prepared dumplings from different regions.

The Swiss artist Hannah Villiger (1951-1997) was a trained sculptor who used the Polaroid camera to cartographically scan her own body and her immediate spatial surroundings, examining them for their sculptural qualities in large-scale image formats and expansive blocks. In her work, questioning of one’s own being by means of body, nature or urban architecture meets the experimental mixing of classical genres. Using these themes, her work formulates a clarity, a courage, and a poetry that are more relevant today than ever.

The Weserburg Museum für moderne Kunst is presenting the first institutional solo exhibition of Kay Rosen in Europe. Ever since the 1970s, the American artist (*1943 in Corpus Christi, Texas; lives in New York City and Gary, Indiana) has been using language as artistic material. She is internationally known above all for wall works which render individual words, sentences or series of letters, often in massive dimensions. Coming together here in an impressive manner are minimalist form, aesthetic impact and intelligent contents.
