FROM NOSE TO COAST erzählt von der Sehnsucht nach Nähe und Distanz. Beleuchtet werden Körperbilder im Kontext soziokultureller Narrative und gegenwärtiger digitaler und technologischer Entwicklungen. Zwischen An- und Abwesenheit, potenzieller Berührung und vordefinierter Choreografie werden Körperpolitiken und intime Bezüge von Individuum und Masse räumlich wahrnehmbar.

FROM NOSE TO COAST deals with the longing for closeness and distance. The exhibition illuminates body images in the context of sociology-cultural narratives and current digital and technological developments. Between presence and absence, potential touch and predefined choreography, body politics and intimate relations between individual and mass become spatially perceptible.

Fabian Fink “Eva”
Fabian Fink’s way of working moves fluently between sculpture, applied arts and furniture design. His catalog Eva is a nonchalant sequence of his art works combined with personal moments. Thus the book gives space to relationships, friends or travels and indicates that this private framework is an important and indispensable part of the artist’s practice. Each photography is accompanied by an index-like flow of words navigating through this private cosmos and introduce the readers to Eva, Hannah, Ida, Jakob, Katrin or Tomash.

Christian Kosmas Mayer “The Book of Record of the Palm Capsule. Designed for resisting the effects of time.”
Amongst the millions of palm trees in Los Angeles there is one that stands out: The Exposition Park Palm Tree. Having been moved three times within its lifetime, the palm is L.A.’s oldest. It is a mute witness to the growth of the city from its early days as a pueblo to the megapolis of today. By 2115 this tree will long be gone and forgotten when the content of an unearthed time capsule reactivates its story. Mayer’s book is the official record of this Palm Capsule.

Hanakam & Schuller “The Emblematic Cabinet. An improvisatory transcript.”
In 1924, the Philadelphia architect Horace Trumbauer was commissioned by tobacco millionaire James Buchanan Duke, to expand the existing Trinity College campus of Duke University Durham, North Carolina. The resulting design, produced by Trumbauer’ office in collegiate Gothic style, were ultimately the work of Afro-American architect Julian F. Abele—at a time when segregation laws prohibited him from even setting foot on the campus. The design of the Duke campus is extensive stylistically eclectic. In the book Duke student Nicholas Chrapliwy and art-history professor Paul B. Jaskot have improvised image analyses of these enigmatic emblems and heraldic features.
