TAUMEL
Exhibition Teaser
Collapsed buildings and, by decay, dysfunctional everyday objects in urban space: the damaged has a powerful attraction for Felix Kiessling, for it holds a form of truth. It is the aesthetics of an era, a social speculation, that sparks his curiosity. He is not only interested in the tragic, but rather in the comical aspects of the material's gestures and life of its own, which express independent of human activity.
The research for his solo exhibition Taumel (Frenzy) leads into urban space, into the phenomena of a throw-away society in which things have become interchangeable and in which symbolic as well as material appreciation reaches a historical low.

FUTURE ARCHEOLOGIES
The project ranges between sculpture, photography and video. Ordinary objects are used to intersect historical memory with mass culture. As artificial constructs they are part of a tradition of critique that has continued to question the universal concepts of the aesthetic experience through to the present day.
