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: Karin Kneffel's work invites us to look at it: if the viewer only looks at the WHAT, he misses the HOW. Her picture shows the WHAT. Through the HOW of this egg, the depicted egg recedes into the background. The quality - the how-ness - of a pictorial form becomes the core of interest.
