I, etcetera at Kunstverein Düsseldorf: An exhibition about the questioning self
With I, etcetera, the Kunstverein for the Rhineland and Westphalia opens a space for art that does not present the self as a fixed figure, but as a movable network. The group exhibition brings together works by Julie Becker, Chan Hau Chun, Oto Gillen, Robert Glück, Danae Io, Alex Kitnick, Doreen Mende, and Fiona Vilmer, focusing on subjectivity as a process, as a relationship, and as a constant shifting.
An exhibition experience between interior, memory, and projection
The curatorial approach relies on tension rather than quick certainties. Interiors, facades, and landscapes transform into images of psychological states, into stages of memory and narrative. Thus, an exhibition arises that does not loudly announce itself, but unfolds slowly. The audience encounters a dramaturgy of fragments, where artistic positions illuminate each other and simultaneously leave open what cannot be fixed.
The Kunstverein as a resonance space
Particularly appealing is the institutional perspective of the show. Not only the works themselves are at the center, but also the Kunstverein as a place where history, archive, members, and visitors create a multi-voiced structure. This perspective lends a unique depth to the stage experience of the exhibition: here, art is not only presented, but the speaking of the institution is also contemplated. The result is an intelligent, reflective theatrical atmosphere of the visual arts, sustained by precision, openness, and a fine sense of curatorial dramaturgy.
An evening that sets thought in motion
The accompanying texts and contributions from Robert Glück, Alex Kitnick, Doreen Mende, and Fiona Vilmer expand the exhibition with literary and theoretical perspectives. This does not create a closed tableau, but a lively space for thought. Those who love contemporary art will experience an exhibition here that carefully questions the relationship between self, language, and institution while never losing its aesthetic power.
Conclusion: I, etcetera promises a demanding, multifaceted exhibition visit that oscillates between intimacy and institution. Those seeking contemporary art as a spiritual and sensory experience should experience this exhibition live.
