From Earlier Times to Now

The exhibition "Perspectives" brings together works from different creative periods and establishes a dialogue between early and recent works. From the early series ‘Berlin Kondensat’ to the ‘Reflexionen’, the exhibition traces a trajectory through various approaches to artistic practice.

Works on paper accompany this journey – some were created years ago, others are brand new. They bear traces of perception, memory and change, whilst simultaneously seeking the ‘perfect’ within the imperfect.

On canvas and in photography, we encounter further perspectives on spaces, moments and forms – and on what lies hidden between the visible.

The exhibition is complemented by ceramic works: small pieces made of clay that appear like found objects – as though they had a story of their own, as though they had been picked up somewhere and brought here from another time, from unexplored landscapes. Whether relic, fragment or something never named – their function and origin remain a mystery. They appear like fragments of a larger picture that is still taking shape.

The result is not a retrospective in the traditional sense, but an open dialogue between then and now, between finding and remembering, seeing and seeing anew. Perhaps each work is also an invitation to question and broaden one’s own perspective for a moment.


Reading, 19.9.2026, 7 PM:

Saturday’s reading also centres on found objects. Horst Eschment will be reading from Hank Miller’s *Zeitlose Räume* – a collection of poems and short stories.

The texts glide effortlessly between poetry and prose, between dream and trauma. The night is not merely a backdrop, but becomes a protagonist – flickering candlelight on the skin of memory. Miller writes about desire as he does about death: without shame, without sentimentality, with a directness that almost hurts. His characters do not seek redemption – they negotiate it in the moment, in the body, in the scent, in the gesture.

Inspired by the evocative power of Dylan Thomas, yet deeply rooted in the present, Miller’s voice is a rare testament to poetry lived. His language is musical, physical, often radically intimate – it speaks of loneliness and closeness, of what remains when everything else crumbles.

In this evocative and thought-provoking collection, Miller reveals the eternal, the transitory, and the spaces where they converge.
