Mirage

with Gleb Amankulov, Wisrah C. V. da R. Celestino, Kevin Jerome Everson, Philipp Fleischmann

The word “mirage” is derived from the French verb “se mirer”, which means “to mirror” or “to reflect”. It was adopted into the English language in the early 19th century and describes fascinating optical illusions that are created by complex atmospheric conditions and often have a hallucinatory effect. The group exhibition Mirage brings together works by different generations of artists that may not appear to be typical works of art at first glance. The exhibition explores different perceptions of art and the expectations they evoke. Mirroring and self-reflection are central themes, while at the same time attempting to broaden the view and liberate artistic practices from the expectation of straightforwardness. Mirage focuses on ambiguity as a subtle form of resistance.

Mirage marks the beginning of a new chapter at the Kunstverein and initiates a site-specific examination of the institution's spaces, which will also play an important role in the future programme.
