Description

Is contemporary art's recurring turn to a material with a rich tradition an attempt to free the precious metal from its historical heritage, from grandeur and pathos?

Is the saying "all that glitters is not gold" thus put to a test by transferring or shifting the always sought-after, glittery material to other contexts?

The exhibition Dore | Vergoldet | Gilded and accompanying catalogue bring together works of contemporary art that deal with gold as a material and colouring agent and thus reflect the notions of value and symbolic power connected with it. Artists: Antje Blumenstein, Olivia Breckemeyer, Ruth Campau, Marianne Engel, Luka Fineisen, Niklas Goldbach, Eckart Hahn, David Krippendorff, Claudia Kugler, Alicja Kwade, Andreas Lang, Via Lewandowsky, Michael Muller, Sebastian Neeb, Andrea Pichl, Johanna Reich, Julian Roeder, Stephanie Saade, Michael Sailstorfer, Karin Sander, Karina Spechter, Henrik Stroemberg, Philip Topolovac, Panos Tsagaris, Frauke Wilken, Andrea Winkler, Clemens Wolf, He Xiangyu. Text in English, German and French.
