In the exhibition "Bohrungen/Drillings" at the Baukunstarchiv NRW in Dortmund, artist Andreas Golinski explores the tensions between historical historiography and the history of memory. Golinski shows artistic spaces and installations in which elements of past eras are combined with traces of the present.
The exhibition is visualized, among other things, by projecting relics from past times. The exhibition extends over several rooms of the Baukunstarchiv
NRW. "Bohrungen/Drillings" encourages visitors to reflect on the past in the sense of critically questioning traditional history. The artist sees the works presented in the exhibition as a "drilling into the deepest layers of visitors' memories". Golinski is not interested in archaeological work in the conventional sense. Rather, he wants to make it clear that memories are always constructed and can be changed over the years and by external influences.
The exhibition will be accompanied by a broad supporting program, including a catalog presentation and a meet & greet with Andreas Golinski on 13.02.2025 at 19.00. Information and registration: www.baukunstarchiv.nrw
Duration of the exhibition: January 17 - March 30, 2025, Baukunstarchiv NRW
