ANYTHING BUT FLAT! From Surface to Space”

13.10.2024 - 23.03.2025

Overstretched, layered, cut, squashed – the works from the Siegfried and Jutta Weishaupt Collection presented in the exhibition “ANYTHING BUT FLAT! From Surface to Space“ all have one thing in common – a shift from two dimensions towards three-dimensional objects. Since the 1960s in particular, artists like Enrico Castellani, Lucio Fontana, Turi Simeti, and Katja Strunz have explored, interpreted, and shaped “exiting the painting” in their own diverse ways. The materials they use include everyday objects, found items, plastic parts, and even an old car chassis. Expanding flat images into More >

herbert oehm. entropy and order

06.04. - 12.10.2025

On the occasion of his 90th birthday, the kunsthalle weishaupt is dedicating a retrospective solo exhibition to the Ulm-born ZERO artist, poster painter and HfG student Herbert Oehm. Oehm’s work development is illuminated in thematic groups, each of which differs in its technique and materiality. From fluttering, shiny gold leaves, grid-like arrangements of toilet paper and droplet structures made of polyester resin to precisely painted color gradients with a spatial effect and relief-like galaxies made of sand – Herbert Oehm creates a world of images full of the most diverse materials in which the artist gives form to considerations on concepts such as order and entropy.
