Current: “Das Gelbe Zelt” | Nov 30, 2025 - January 17, 2026

augsburg contemporary presents 48 contemporary international positions in the visual arts (China, Denmark, Germany, Greece, Ukraine, Malaysia, Netherlands, Sweden, USA), brought together in a 20 m² space. The tent, the original form of shelter, conveys the impression of a house, offering space and protection. Yet it remains fragile, with only limited security, no stable walls, and no permanence. The thin fabric shell creates a special space, a transitional area between inside and outside. Thus, the exhibition becomes a symbol of hope and confidence in these dark times, shining out into the world through the gallery's large display window. *Dagmar Amling, Anja Behrens, Oliver Braig, Albert Coers, Claudia Desgranges, Isabelle Dyckerhoff, Christian Frosch, Inge Gutbrod, Anja Güthoff, Zita Habarta, Zandra Harms, Mark Harrington, Reiner Heidorn, Thomas Hellinger, Angelika Hoegerl, Bettina Hutschek, Karen Irmer, Inge Jakobsen, Trisha Kanellopoulos, Liu Ke, Andreas Kocks, Oleksiy Koval, Anna Maria Kursawe, Elvira Lantenhammer, Florian Lechner, Carolin Leyck, Zhou Li, Lodtalad, A.

Inge Gutbrod will design a new spatial installation made of various wax cylinders especially for the exhibition space at augsburg contemporary. The installation consists of thick-walled, solid-colored wax tubes of varying lengths and diameters. They are precisely cast and each illuminated by an opaque LED light that rests succinctly on a glass dome. Some cylinders stand, some lie, and some are lifted onto the wall, their interiors filled with a shimmering light that diffuses outward. The black cables of the lighting are visible and deliberately laid out in a meandering pattern on the floor like a kind of drawing. The colored glow of the objects has a mysterious effect, even though the artist reveals the technique so crudely. She calls this installation “light-soaked,” and indeed, the objects are so saturated with light that the colors appear to be charged with uniform energy. You can see the structure of the cast wax, the thickening and streaks that resulted from the casting process, and you get a sense of the powerful physicality of the material as the colored light expands into the space. The different wax cylinders are color-coordinated and create a color harmony that bathes the exhibition space in a special, intense, and comforting light. | Friday/Saturday 2-5 pm
