The exhibition Cases of Water deals with the representability of water in images.
Three artists from Frankfurt am Main use different media forms such as installation, video work and photography to make references that are characterized by everyday viewing habits with the fluid element and thematize these themselves. By bringing together familiar techniques of
reproduction, the artistic works emphasize the generic, as we often encounter it in the world of commodities - the motif is always water.
The central hall of the depot becomes an exhibition space: duplications and alienations are created, which are to be understood as an invitation to intervene and think: what does water have to do with us?
Marcel Appel, Linda Enseroth and Talida Hölting work individually and collectively in Berlin and Frankfurt am Main.
Marcel Appel works with multimedia. The artistic process is essential: the principle of superimposition and layering is reflected in an installative conception of the works.
Linda Enseroth is concerned with collecting, reproducing and arranging printed matter and plastic industrial products of all kinds. Her often serial works question concepts such as originality and authorship. In both analog and digital practice, she is interested in the autonomy of artistic processes based on their materiality.
Talida Hölting conducts artistic research on site-specific topics. She gives lectures on the interweaving of spatial theory and art, conducts workshops and teaches at Goethe University in Frankfurt am Main. Space is approached materially, phenomenologically and conceptually. Her artistic work focuses on the relationships between art, space and the body.
