In today’s flood of images, we often overlook the frame that determines what becomes visible.
X FRAMES PER SPACE • DIFFERENT LOGICS – SHARED QUESTIONS explores these framings as a fundamental basis for our perception of the world and creates an open space where art and science intersect and unfold. 70 artistic and scientific positions illuminate complex relationships: they ask how scientific data inspire artistic creation and how art engages with contemporary scientific inquiries. It is driven by the interfaces between science, art, technology, data visualization, social imagination, and processes of exploration and transformation. It investigates how different modes of thinking can lead to similar questions – or, conversely, how different questions can yield comparable outcomes. In the multi-logical interplay of Virtual Reality, Artificial Intelligence, robotics, video, installation, painting, and drawing, new spaces for thought emerge beyond established categories. By experiencing diverse perspectives, the exhibition invites visitors to question the apparent self-evidence of our worldview and to move beyond the frame to discover new paths.
