Resonance Spaces at the New Gallery: An anniversary that brings memories to life

With Resonance Spaces, the New Gallery Kassel celebrates its 50th anniversary and presents central acquisitions from recent years. The exhibition leads into a visual world of large-scale installations, films, and objects, where personal and collective memory, history, and the present intersect. The New Gallery has been showcasing modern artworks from state and municipal collections since 1976 and is closely associated with documenta.

When art becomes a space of remembrance

The exhibition unfolds a dense atmosphere: Works by Pinar Ögrenci, Jürgen O. Olbrich, Michal Heiman, and Ute Lindner open different perspectives on archive, memory, and perception. Ögrenci thinks about collaborative remembering in Aşît, Olbrich collects discarded photographs, Heiman questions psychological testing structures, and Lindner reflects on time and image traditions in her Exposure Times. This creates an artistic experience that unfolds a multifaceted dialogue of memory between installation, film, and object.

Documenta connection, collection, and present

The New Gallery is not only a museum of modern art but also a precisely curated site of Kassel's art history. It spans a wide spectrum from classical modernity to international contemporary art, supplemented by the documentarily influenced collection space about: documenta. Thus, the exhibition becomes an important building block of cultural education: It shows how museums preserve memory while simultaneously opening new perspectives on art history.

Those who engage in this artistic experience will encounter an exhibition that perceives the museum as a space for thought: sensual, reflective, and historically grounded. Resonance Spaces invites visitors to not only observe the works but to read their traces of time. A visit to the New Gallery is worthwhile for everyone who understands art as an aesthetic experience and as a lively engagement with memory.
