As part of the exhibition Architecture of Hidden Activity – The physical Dimension of the Digital, the gallery invites you to a conversation between artist Emma Charles and curator and natural philosopher Dehlia Hannah.
A conversation about the material aspects of the digital world: Anna Voswinckel speaks with Marie Rief, Stefanie Seufert, and Silja Yvette about materials, digital usage, and the life cycles of technical devices. The artists explore how information, screen gestures, and industrial casings become tangible in their work.
An interdisciplinary panel discussion explores the material dimension of the digital world from an academic perspective. Experts from the fields of research and theory will discuss the illusion of digital immateriality, the resource costs of technical infrastructure, and the impact of digital omnipresence on society and the environment—thereby expanding the exhibition’s discourse.
For the finissage, the curators will guide visitors through the exhibition and offer insights into its background. The focus will be on the material dimension of the digital, the illusion of immateriality, and the processes of innovation, use, and disposal explored in the works—and how material functions as a distinct dimension of experience in this context.
The Galerie im Körnerpark cordially invites you to the opening of the exhibition Architecture of Hidden Activity. The works on display materialize the mostly invisible infrastructures of the digital age and reveal how data streams, technical systems, and economic processes shape our everyday lives.
We warmly invite you to the closing event of the exhibition Up Close – Goldrausch 2025, and to the last tour by curator Yolanda Kaddu-Mulindwa and Hannah Kruse, director of the Goldrausch Künstlerinnenprojekt.
Victoria Sarangova’s performance activates her installation One Horse Left (1931), which addresses the loss of property and deportation of her family in 1931. Through slow gestures and a soundscape, she connects personal and collective history to reflect on the lasting aftermath of Russian colonial violence.
The artist Mara Kirchberg will publicly maintain and activate her installation Lubricating a Hardening Muscle with her performance Service Hours.
