Exhibition „Konzeptuelle Kunst“ [“Conceptual Art“], Baden-Baden

The "Gesellschaft der Freunde Junger Kunst e.V." ["Society of Friends of Young Art"] shows a selection of works by the renowned conceptual artist Ottmar Hörl. Known for his spectacular large-scale projects in public spaces, Hörl uses the serial principle to explore the expansion of the boundaries of art and its social relevance. The exhibition presents key works from 1983 to 2025 and invites visitors to re-consider art.

Hörl's works question patterns of perception and viewing habits. About 20 years before drones and AI changed the world, Hörl had cameras flying through space and time. He threw them from airplanes, skyscrapers and cable cars or mounted them on wheel rims and cordless screwdrivers to create a visual world that is free from emotions and preconceived perceptions. Develop new methods to gain new, unusual perspectives. For his serial art, he uses everyday materials such as plastic pallets or Lego bricks to create new aesthetic perspectives. Whether an extensive installation or an affordable multiple - with works such as "Rede an die Menschheit" ["An Address to Humanity"] or UNSCHULD ["Innocence"] he gets to the bottom of social issues, democracy and responsibility and sets them up for discussion. New paintings such as the "Heisenberg Paraphrasen" ["Heisenberg Paraphrases"] (2025) are on the trail of the quantum world that is barely imaginable to us. The exhibition is not a retrospective, but rather an experimental arrangement that links art, science and society.

A visit to the exhibition could change your view of art. Come! Take a look!
