Starting at the end of March 2019, the collection presentation “The Way We Are 1.0” will be featured on two floors constituting more than half of the overall exhibition space of the Weserburg. The exhibition includes works from a large number of collections, some of which have enjoyed a long association with the institution while others are new additions; also on display will be works from the Weserburg’s own collection as well as loans by artists who will be participating in a show at the Weserburg for the first time.

Try it out, experiment playfully, change it and help shape it! In the interactive exhibition KlangTräume you can reinvent the history of the Bremen Town Musicians, hop melodies, feel the volume, compose timbres, get to know the pitch in the ship in a bottle, listen to your own voice for 100 m, set different rhythms on the large music box, hear your heartbeat very loud, play with your voice.

For the American artist Andrea Bowers (born in 1965, lives in Los Angeles), political involvement and artistic work cannot be separated. For more than two decades, she has stood for an artistic position which combines a well-thought-through aesthetic practice with acute political observation from a feminist perspective. Her creative output is characterised by a masterly balance between activist resistance and its transfer into artistic language. The exhibition at the Weserburg Museum for Modern Art is presenting the very first survey exhibition of Bowers’ creative production.
