Kurator*innenführung: Marc Brandenburg

With Ilka Voermann, curator of the exhibition and head of the Graphic Collection

Berlin-based multimedia artist Marc Brandenburg (*1965) is one of the most important contemporary graphic artists internationally. His work moves between graphics, collage, installation, video and performance. His focus is on detailed pencil drawings based on photographic models, which he captures on forays or samples from magazines, films and books. Brandenburg reflects on the contrasts of metropolitan life, addressing social grievances as well as excess and consumption as effects of late capitalism. What is conveyed is less a narrative than a melancholy and ominous mood that subtly refers to the crises of our time. The comprehensive exhibition shows around 150 drawings as well as videos, tattoo sheets and photos.
