sounds like ...? looks like ...? Peter Roehr – eine klangkünstlerische Hommage

In the organizer's words:

The renowned artist Peter Roehr died in 1968 at the age of just 24. Despite his short creative period, he left behind a large body of work and is now internationally recognized as one of the first representatives of Minimal Art in Germany, a photographic artist of Pop Art and a pioneer of Conceptual Art in the 1970s.

Born in 1944, the artist attended the Wiesbaden Werkkunstschule - home of today's Kunsthaus Wiesbaden. Peter Roehr would have been 80 years old in 2024. To mark the occasion, the Kunsthaus is paying tribute to this artist with a special homage.

Five international sound artists, Danbi Jeung, Kyungseo Min, Juan David Bermúdez, Wingel Mendoza and Leon Senger, have explored Peter Roehr and his working methods for the first time. Works have been created especially for this exhibition, which are in dynamic exchange with a selection of serial montages by Peter Roehr.
