Tom Albrecht shows his  installation “Sensor” and his object “Transformation”.

“Transformation” If until now we took the collected energy from the planet Earth and caused an existential problem, now we have to obtain it directly from the sun. This requires our social, economic and technical transformation.
“Sensor” detects air pollution outside and reports it to a global citizen network and displays it inside.

Participating artists:
Tom Albrecht, Conrad Brockstedt, Barbara Czarnojahn, Lupe Godoy, Rosika Janko-Glage, Maria Korporal, Lina Schobel + Paul Reßl, Andrea Streit + Nancy Happ, Burchard Vossmann, Helga Wagner

Dinosaurs, aliens and electronic waste
When dinosaurs meet aliens and bags full of waste, there can only be one topic: the climate crisis.
This phenomenon permeates all areas of our lives. Without consistent and decisive countermeasures, all changes run towards a critical point – the “tipping point”. From this point on, the factors can no longer be influenced; the system becomes self-sustaining.
Thus, the new exhibition at the VBK is also called “Climate Tipping Points”. It presents works created as part of a competition.
The idea came from VBK member Andrea Streit. In the end, 10 artists were selected who focus on completely different aspects of the theme in their submitted works.
The artists deal with the causes and effects of climate change in their works. The forms of expression range from painting, collage, video, object, and installation to conceptual art.
The result is a very multi-layered exhibition on a virulent topic – exciting, discussion-stimulating, and entertaining at the same time.
