ENCOUNTERS

Close personal contacts have existed for years with many of the artists represented in the collection. The concept of "Encounters" at the David-Hansemann-House has emerged from these connections. Here we discuss art, its impact and the interaction between the rules of art and the rules of implementation with employees, partners and external guests.

DAS WIE AM WAS: Seeing the new is a highly complex process. As a rule, we only see what we know and only what corresponds to our previous knowledge seems real to us. If we allow the artist to entice us to take a closer look not only at what we already know, but also at what is unfamiliar, then we will be led beyond the familiar reality to something new.
