Press Texts

Lorem Ipsum

This performative exhibition is a physical appropriation of the SCHIRN. On two evenings and two days, from March 28 to March 30, 2025, the windows of the empty museum gallery, which are normally kept shut, will be opened. Flooded with light, the room will be brought to life, invigorated, structured, confronted, and encountered through the unique atmosphere of live performances.
