An exhibition title like an open echo: I, etcetera in Düsseldorf

With I, etcetera, the Kunstverein für die Rheinlande und Westfalen opens a group exhibition that thinks of artistic subjectivity not as a fixed figure, but as a movable web of process, relationship, and narrative. The exhibition runs from September 19, 2026, to January 17, 2027, at Haus am Grabbeplatz 4 in Düsseldorf.

Between I and world: an exhibition as a space for thought

The title releases the never-ending continuation of thought: Et cetera is understood here not as a remainder, but as an invitation to experience forms of self in flux. The exhibition focuses on artistic practices where identity, narration, and institutional reality intertwine. In this, a quiet, intellectually rich theatrical experience of seeing unfolds, even though no stage in the classical sense is being played on here.

Space, rhythm, and curatorial tension

The Kunstverein itself becomes part of the narrative: The exhibition questions how an institution articulates and forms itself in processes. This gives the tour a special theatrical atmosphere of perception, in which each work functions like a scene, and each position prepares the next image. The Kunstverein has been one of the oldest institutions of its kind in Germany since 1829.
