Now Sounds
June 07th - June 30th
We invite you to see Miranda‘s work and to join us at Vorfluter for the exhibition opening on Friday June 07th 2024, 7pm.
Miranda Holmes embraces expansive notions of identity and intimacy in her paintings, drawings, and installations. Her work speculates on how we shape one another and the places we inhabit through spaces of overlap. Using transparent films of paint, Holmes layers shapes of everyday objects within figures, entangling them with the cups they hold, the drawers they open, and the shoulders they lean on.
Lea Walloschke
Chaos in the Vicinity of a Singularity
May 10th - May 24th
We invite you to see Lea‘s works and to join us at Vorfluter for the exhibition opening on Friday May 10th 2024, 7pm.
„Chaos in the Vicinity of a Singularity“ dives into the intricate dance of perception amidst life‘s manifold transformations and experiences. Much like the mind-bending phenomena of time and space in physics, our daily existence is marked by a constant flux of thoughts and sensations. While our physical being resides in the present moment, our consciousness navigates a chaotic tapestry of past, present, and future.
Helena Ospina Lizarralde
One Stitch per Second
April 5th - April 20th
We invite you to see Helena‘s works and to join us at Vorfluter for the exhibition opening on Friday April 5th 2024, 7pm.
“One stitch per second” is a project that interrogates the relationship between manual labor and time productivity in the art field. As a starting point Helena Ospina reflects upon the relationship with her own hands as working tools, engaging in a durational process of surveillance of one’s own productivity in regards to the suggested velocity of the modern city.

What and how do you scan and touch in our era, where do the real and non-real coexist, and what remains after your own process of filtering? How do we translate symbols from mere images into specific meanings? How do we translate figures from combined images into specific meanings?
Gidon Sack
Infinite Regress
January 19th - February 09th
We invite you to see Gidon Sack‘s works and to join us for the exhibition opening on Friday January 19th, 6pm
Gidon Sack’s paintings are expansive and speculative zones, where facts and fictions converge.
Often responding to the phenomena of delirium, ecstasy and hysteria, his practice dissects aspects of mass psychology and the sociology of rituals which dictate our daily lives.

We invite you to see Katarzyna Debska´s works and to join us at Vorfluter for the exhibition opening on Friday December 01st 2023, 7pm.
Can you imagine a world without plants? Let‘s move for a moment into the near future. As a result of progressive crimes against nature, in 2040 plants practically became extinct- they have disappeared as a result of systemic negligence, ecocide ceases to be just a symbolic concept. How would we live if we only co-existed with non-physical plant substitutes?

Body, fortress of wonder, fractures and falls to the threshold. Sorrow.
What beckons to look amidst cracks, still and shifting shadows, humble wet miseries of a divided wholeness?

Curator: Raúl Arellano
Exhibition from September 1st to September 22th, 2023
We invite you to see Gonzalo Morales Leiva‘s works and to join us at Vorfluter for the exhibition opening on Friday September 1st, 7pm.
In the Inca Empire civilization, the Khipukamayuq designed quipus: systems of strings and knots that served as records, capturing and transmitting knowledge and traditions. Despite colonization attempting to diminish their significance, quipus endure as a testament to Andean heritage. Quipus stand as emblems of human thought, urging us to reconsider our roots and our relationship with our historical legacy.
Paula Kaniewska
Soft Power
Exhibition from June 23th to July 14th, 2023
We invite you to see Paula Kaniewska‘s works and to join us at Vorfluter for the exhibition opening on Friday June 23th 2023, 7pm.
Sound Performance by Ángeles Rojas will start at 8pm.
Can a fence made of balloons keep anyone out? The exhibition “Soft Power” points to the arbitrary nature of borders and searches for ways to open them up. In collaboration with the composer Ángeles Rojas, Paula Kaniewska explores the issue of divided and inaccessible space by employing balloons: enclosed and trapped air. These fragile, yet surprisingly flexible and resilient, objects are the building blocks for Kaniewska’s barrier-shaped installation but would burst upon contact with the sharp wires of actual fences. The tension between the need to demarcate territory and the oppression of boundaries governs the exhibition – air deflates from this pumped-up border and resonates with the sounds of the confined spaces.
Annabel Paran
Hot To Get Good At Dying
Exhibition from May 12th to June 1st, 2023
We invite you to see Annabel Paran‘s works and to join us for the exhibition opening on Friday May 12th, 7pm
„..all losses are temporary.“
Annabel Paran’s work contemplates the spiritual dimensions of loss. How To Get Good At Dying examines in particular the notion of letting go of parts of the self which were shaped by, and are attached to systems of oppression - the same systems we wish to give up on.
In the context of fast, consumerist culture, mourning is a rare pause, and therefore subversive: a site of meaningful “dysfunction.” In this show’s proposition, we are both the dead and the grievers. What are we left with if we let go, get saturated with and integrate our losses? Can it be a celebration? Can there be joy in loss?
Juan Nazar
Visiting a Stone
Exhibition from April 14th to April 30th, 2023
We invite you to see Juan Nazar‘s works and to join us at Vorfluter for the exhibition opening on Friday April 14th 2023, 6pm.
Just like a stone is a fragment of a rock that is made up of hundreds of smaller stones, Visiting a Stone deals with small findings, frames, or fragments of something that wishes to find its other part. That other part seems to be the artist’s desire to be completed with his history, his childhood, remembrances, and fragments of his memory.
The exhibition approaches concepts of territory and historic interpretation through different materialities, but also inserts itself in the subconscious of the artist himself, who takes inspiration from the German Romantic period, in which a fragment or a part of a ruin was regarded as a vestige of something that still remained unfinished.
Alex Nowak
Puppets on Fire
Exhibition from February 24th to March 17th, 2023
We invite you to see Alex Nowak‘s works and to join us at Vorfluter for the exhibition opening on Friday February 24th 2023, 7pm.
This exhibition is about the inhospitability and fragility of the body. “Puppets on Fire” addresses the human figure and emphasizes its spatial ambivalence between identity and alienation.The puppet on fire burns its own strings not to be tuned by others. The innervated puppet cuts the strings it is attached to.
Florian Huber
Veredelung
Exhibition from December 06th to January 07th, 2023
We invite you to see Florian Huber‘s works and to join us at Vorfluter for the exhibition opening on Tuesday December 06th 2022, 7pm
Florian Huber preserves moments of escapism and turns them into everlasting symbols of desire. He has collected the leftovers from the very last party of Hamburg‘s club Moloch and preserved it for eternity. When it became quiet in the clubs during the first Corona lockdown, the artist took photographs of the Function One Soundsystem in the Waagenbau in Hamburg and immortalized them in paintings. The works become monuments, appealing to our collective memory and calling for a sensitive urban development in which everyday life, residential life and club culture mutually refine and do not destroy each other.

The exhibition brings together the intensity and the celebration of being a visible lesbian

Las Dulces Promesas
Exhibition from September 14th to October 06th, 2022
Join us at Vorfluter for the exhibition opening and see Krasna‘s works on Wednesday September 14th 2022, 7pm
The project consists of a reflection on the concepts of memory and migration approached through pictorial and graphic exercises. It is born from the migration experience of the artist, from Chile to Germany. In this period of adaptation, she seeks to record her migratory process by accumulating different surfaces and graphic materials that contain historical and political images, to later use them as a support for her work.
Wiebke Käckenmester
Liquified Self
Exhibition from June 24th to August 06th, 2022
watercolor paintings and photographs
„My work reflects the urge to detach parts of my mind, sense them visually until they are turned into external objects. Emerging from the unconscious, the flow of colors projects invisible fractions to the outer surface. Mostly, I take selfportraits and transform them into watercolor paintings.“
Vorfluter is a transdisciplinary project space for contempor-ary art. We offer space and support for the production and exploration of new work, with a focus on site-specific installations and audiovisual works. The exchange with artists from various fields inspires and motivates to run the „Vorfluter“ as a project space.
