Tranformation Continues: Haus der Kunst München Announces Autom/Winter Season
Haus der Kunst, Munich’s global centre for contemporary art, builds on the ongoing transformation of its programming vision with the announcement of the Autumn/Winter season, running from September 2023 to March 2024. Framed by the themes of gender, environment and technology, the season continues to expand and diversify Haus der Kunst’s ambitious plans to programme across the fields of visual art and performance, opening it up and bringing together new #audiences.

“Tune”, Haus der Kunst’s ongoing exploration of the realms of sound, music, and visual art, continues across the season, including Alex Zhang Hungtai, Tadleeh, Joanne Robertson and guests, and Nivhek.
Martino Gamper’s “Sitzung” turns historic Mittelhalle of Haus der Kunst into a vibrant meeting space.
Andrea Lissoni, Artistic Director, Haus der Kunst, said today: “As an institution, Haus der Kunst is transforming, a new approach to engagement and learning is at the core of this process, resonating with the pressing need to act locally, yet sustain a global perspective. Our journey is towards an arts centre where the future is not just anticipated, but actively manifested.”
Emma Enderby, Chief Curator, Haus der Kunst, said: “The new season reflects an extensive programme of work by artists of different generations. We continue our wider focus on the boundary breaking approach of today’s emerging artists, who move effortlessly between visual art, dance, music, sound art and digital technologies, alongside the multi disciplinary practices presented by the trailblazing artists from the recent past.”
Programme Highlights Autumn/Winter 23/24
Inside Other Spaces. Environments by Women Artists 1956—1976
As part of Haus der #Kunst’s ongoing re examination of overlooked histories, this landmark exhibition reframes the artistic canon by presenting women’s fundamental role in the development of immersive art, which at the time was referred to as environments, and which have gone on to have a lasting impact in the field of visual art. Spanning three generations of artists from Asia, Europe as well as North and South America, the exhibition includes work by Judy Chicago, Lygia Clark, Laura Grisi, Aleksandra Kasuba, Lea Lublin, Marta Minujín, Tania Mouraud, Maria Nordman, Nanda Vigo, Faith Wilding, and Tsuruko Yamazaki.
Situated at the threshold between art, architecture and design, environments create and transform space, inviting the spectator to enter, engage and interact with them. The exhibition starts with the first environment Red (Work), to be realised by a female artist, Tsuruko Yamazaki in 1956, and continues to the first historic review of such artworks at the 37th Venice Biennale in 1976, when environments became a major feature in the international art world. Yet to date, their historiography centres almost exclusively on the United States and on the works by male artists. Since most environments were destroyed right after their display, Inside Other Spaces will be the first show of its kind to reconstruct the immersive art works.
Wang Shui. Window of Tolerance
To provide a contemporary perspective to Inside Other Spaces, Haus der Kunst presents Wang Shui’s first institutional solo show in Europe. Their practice forms portals into virtual worlds, spanning video, sculpture, and painting. The exhibition features ethereal paintings etched into aluminium, each co authored with a machine learning programme trained on previous paintings by the artist. The centrepiece is a new video sculpture Certainty of the Flesh (2023), incorporating artificial intelligence simulation to develop real time movement and dialogue. The audience will encounter different hybrid beings whose interactions develop a supernatural narrative drawn from reality #TV and ancient mythologies, played on an infinite loop between the characters. The work questions how humans will appear and communicate in a technologically supported future.
Meredith Monk. Calling
The most comprehensive survey to date of the trailblazing artist is a collaboration in two acts at Haus der #Kunst and Oude Kerk, Amsterdam, together with the Hartwig Art Foundation. Renowned for her site specific performance, Monk’s interdisciplinary approach has had a significant influence on subsequent generations of artists and performers. Moving seamlessly across disciplines, Monk has continuously explored the evocative power and dimensionality of the human voice. While she is widely recognised in the worlds of music and theatre, Haus der Kunst will present the first exhibition in Europe dedicated to her immersive work, featuring multi sensorial installations, embracing the cross disciplinary way in which she has worked throughout her six decade career.
Martino Gamper. Sitzung
The Mittelhalle of Haus der Kunst has become a constantly evolving social space of movement and encounters with a playful new work by the acclaimed Italian designer, Martino Gamper OBE. Gamper was in residence at Haus der Kunst in July 2023, creating a series of newly designed chairs. Throughout the course of the exhibition, the number of chairs will increase and be positioned according to layouts developed by Gamper. Through the different arrangements of the chairs, which are then in turn moved by our visitors — to gather, to rest, and to play — various constellations of social dynamics become apparent, turning the Mittelhalle into a vibrant, constantly changing space. Until the end of the exhibition, self brought food and drinks, as well as games, are welcome in the Mittelhalle. We call this “BYOE (Bring Your Own Everything)”. Everything (well, almost everything) is allowed.
“Tune. Sound and beyond live” at Haus der Kunst
Tune, a series of short sound residencies, is in its third year and firmly anchored in the programme of Haus der Kunst. The invited artists work primarily in sound and present different strands of their work in the form of performances of solo works and collaborations, screenings, and installations. The artists move across genres, eras, and influences, and generate sonic responses and exchanges with the wider programming at Haus der Kunst. Tune’s Autumn/Winter programme will be dedicated to exploring the voice of AI further, including artists Alex Zhang Hungtai, Tadleeh, Joanne Robertson and guests, and Nivhek.
