Press releases
Kapwani Kiwanga. The Length of the Horizon
September 16, 2023 – January 7, 2024
From September 16, 2023 to January 7, 2024, the Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg will present Kapwani Kiwanga. The Length of the Horizon, the first institutional and comprehensive mid-career retrospective of the artist’s work worldwide. Research-based, thematically highly topical, and future-oriented—these terms can be used to describe the impressive oeuvre of Kapwani Kiwanga (b. 1978). The Canadian and French artist recently received numerous international awards and will represent Canada at the 60th Biennale di Venezia in 2024.
Ukrainian Dreamers. The Kharkiv School of Photography
October 12, 2023 – January 7, 2024
It is an impressive collection of some 5,000 photographs and more than 70,000 negatives—a total of almost 2,000 kilograms of material—that Sergiy Lebedynskyy had transported to Wolfsburg a few weeks after the beginning of the Russian war of aggression. They all belong to the so-called Kharkiv School of Photography, a movement that has been experimenting artistically since the late 1960s and represents a kind of anti-attitude to official Soviet-style photography
Paolo Pellegrin
Fragile Wonders
November 25, 2023 – April 7, 2024
A gigantic iceberg, glowing lava, barren desert landscapes, magnificent vegetation, paradise-like animal worlds and the last two living northern white rhinos — Paolo Pellegrin’s (b. 1964) photographs take us on a visually powerful journey around the world: From Iceland to Costa Rica, from Greenland to Namibia, from Italy to Japan, and from Germany to Australia he traces the impacts of the human-caused climate catastrophe and the state of nature.
