Multiples Weiß
Perhaps this exhibition begins with a void.
A wall featuring 50% art by women strikes many people as surprisingly feminine. Not because it depicts women – but because we have become accustomed to the fact that precisely this – the reality that surrounds us every day – is often not shown, addressed or depicted.
Gaps are rarely empty. They are filled with habit. With perspectives. With decisions about who becomes visible – and who does not.
Perhaps visibility is like oxygen. As long as we have enough of it ourselves, we don’t think about it. Only when something shifts do we suddenly notice the air.
‘Multiples Weiß’ invites us to take precisely this sense of disorientation seriously. Not only in relation to gender, but to all perspectives that are often overlooked in everyday life, in museums, in the media or in history.
Which voices are missing? Which stories have never been told? And which images therefore seem ‘normal’ to us, even though they show only a fragment of reality?
Perhaps in this exhibition you will discover more than just works of art.
Perhaps, above all, you will discover the empty spaces in between.
