Experience culture. Poetry Slam in Hamburg

Public Guided Tour

A Public Guided Tour through the exhibitions Lenke Rothman: Quality of Life, Hsu Che-Yu with Chen Wan-Yin: ENTOMBED, and Rafael Moreno: projections. Updates to each tour can be found on the Website kunstverein.de.

Rachel Eckroth Trio

Hardly anyone moves as confidently and successfully through different genres as pianist, composer and singer Rachel Eckroth. Deeply rooted in jazz, she also regularly appears as a singer-songwriter or plays keyboard with such major names as Rufus Wainwright and the alternative band St. Vincent. She even won a Grammy with the latter in 2025. Eckroth now appears in Hamburg with her well-rehearsed trio.

Rafael Moreno: projections

In projections, Rafael Moreno conceives the city as a mega body – a system in constant operation that promises proximity while simultaneously producing distance. Urban space appears as a computer driven by desire, repetition and excess, where skyscrapers with their reflective architecture create environments of visibility and exclusion. At the center of this system are female figures who, in reference to Ingmar Bergman’s Persona (1966), disturbingly mirror and permeate each other. Found and collaged objects refer to mythically charged narratives of urban life. They function as carriers and filters: handbags, computer shells and images of promising skylines absorb information, deform it, and accumulate pressure. Between hard surfaces and soft interruptions, the city reveals its libido – not as spectacle, but as a persistent tension between exposure and withdrawal.

This exhibition is part of the Kunstverein's new Project Space-in-Residence programme. In 2026, the Hamburg-based project space chess club, initiated by Amanda Weimer, will be the guest. The exhibition Projections marks the start of this residency.
