The exhibition con.tain focuses on the reuse of "waste", the process of finding and transforming what has been left behind. Objects of various kinds are collected, categorized, transformed and placed in new contexts in terms of content and form in the form of photography, painting, collage, printmaking and installation. Alan Biehlig, Nele Hendrikje Sandner, Katharina Schreiter, Teresa Szepes and Clara Pötsch are showing five artistic positions that deal with issues such as diversity, identity, myths, bodies and organisms alongside the aspect of sustainability. In doing so, they question the nature of things, their content and their function and open up new spaces for thought.
