Kuratorinnenführung durch die Ausstellung "Ludger Gerdes: Synkategoremata" mit Merle Radtke
In the organizer's words:
In the guided tour, Merle Radtke, curator of the Synkategoremata exhibition and director of the Kunsthalle Münster, provides insights into the artistic work of Ludger Gerdes.
Ludger Gerdes would have turned 70 in 2024, and the Kunsthalle Münster would like to take this as an opportunity to focus on his work and contextualize it in an exhibition in the Stadthausgalerie. Gerdes was a versatile practitioner: a painter, sculptor and photographer, but also a writer and theorist. He turned to these media episodically to develop his enduring aesthetic and philosophical investigation into the possibilities of artistic autonomy in public space. While studying at the Düsseldorf Academy in the early 1980s, Gerdes befriended a group of artists who became known as model makers and who shared a common interest in sculpture, architecture and model making. For Gerdes, the model was not just a question of scale, but a source of critical thinking. His idea of the thinking model provided a framework for artistic creation in the form of a sketch, a plan or a text.
