Students from the Suchan Kinoshita class at the Münster Art Academy are developing interventions at the cultural property Haus Nottbeck. With the place itself as a starting point, as an instrument that can be played, the students engage with it, explore it and let it inspire their works.
Seeing a place by hearing, only seeing, only hearing or hearing by seeing. The extent to which this interplay can take place must be constantly explored anew and can never be taken for granted. Everything that is brought along fits into the existing, plays with it and explores it. The goal is an interplay that cannot arise anywhere else in this way, but could be practised everywhere in this way. At the end of the two-week work phase at the cultural estate, the works created on site in the interior and exterior spaces will be presented.

The artists are Alma Mariama Camara, Anja Mothes, Bastian Buddenbrock, Jennifer Rommel, Leon-Maxim Lindner, Malin Schlebusch, Marie Parohl, Micael Gonçalves Ribeiro, Sophie Rebentisch.

Opening: Sat 25.03.2023 | 3.00 p.m. with artistic actions and performances under the motto “I like hats; I brought a helmet.”
Location: Kulturgut Haus Nottbeck | Landrat-Predeick-Allee 1 | 59302 Oelde
Opening hours: Museum: Tue – Fri 2 – 6 p.m. | Sat, Sun and public holidays 11 a.m. – 6 p.m.

In the multimedia transformer in Nottbeck, Muzak & Riha transform image into sound and sound into image, image sound or sound image. In the process, material is alternately stretched back and forth between the artists. Losses, interference and fragmentation become visible and audible. Found footage, literary text fragments, a phonetic alphabet and specially recorded material serve as input material. Muzak & Riha will work live on site and invite the viewers to interact. Through the participants, the project is continuously evolving and gaining focus every day, although a certain unfinished or incomplete nature remains until the end.

Opening: 09.05. from 2 p.m.

Paul Panhuysen (Netherlands), who died in 2015, was one of the pioneers of multimedia sound art and was influenced by the international Fluxus movement since the 1960s. As early as 1989, one of his spectacular long-string installations was shown at the back of the cuba in Münster. We have made a selection of the works that can be realized especially in the exhibition hall at Hawerkamp with his widow Hélène Panhuysen. The exhibition of his works, which are still current and influential today, at the Kunsthalle Hawerkamp in Münster is supported by the Panhuysen Estate. The first solo exhibition of his works post mortem, is realized with the support of the ZKM – zentrum für kunst und medien karlsruhe.

Achim Vogel Muranyi and Peter Vogel Heritage present two interactive sound walls from two different eras. The analogue sound wall “Rhythmic Sounds I” from the 1990s – an electronic wall installation with 18 light sensors – and the digital sound wall “Techno Soundwall” from the present – a computer-programmed version based on audio samples. Both sound walls are inspired by club and techno music and can be played intuitively.

Both artists are linked by seven years of close collaboration. While the artist Peter Vogel, who died in 2017, laid the foundation of interactive sound object art, Achim Vogel’s work can be seen as a logical further development. Differences as well as similarities are not only of a technical nature, they also reflect their own zeitgeist in terms of content, which is particularly clear in the juxtaposition of their sound walls.

Opening with live performance Achim Vogel Muranyi: 14.05. at 3 p.m.

At cuba, parallel to the sound art exhibition Paul Panhuysen, the installation ANTENNA by the young Belgian artist Floris Vanhoof will be shown, which translates “omnipresent electro-magnetic waves” – such as imploding stars, distant lightning, weather balloons, aeroplanes, car keys and telephones – into delightful piano sounds.

A new musical concert format full of experiences for the audience is presented by the four-member ensemble “Ears Wide Open”. Pieces, songs and dances from different musical traditions serve as a starting point for improvisations, which are sometimes played groovy and rousing, sometimes lyrical and contemplative. The result is a concert experience in which touching, great music resounds as if by magic, in which everyone is involved – an impressive experience full of sound, interaction and togetherness, which has already enchanted the Berlin audience.

The ensemble consists of the Indian tabla virtuoso Ravi Srinivasan, who is also trained in classical Indian vocal techniques and is a virtuoso whistler. Mathis Mayr participates on the cello, and Gregor Schulenburg plays the flute, Armenian duduk and Japanese Zen flute Kyotaku. As host and expert in collaborative music making and community music, singer Marion Haak-Schulenburg directs the event. The audience is invited to join the ensemble with various instruments, singing, snapping, clapping and existing small instruments.

Start: 7.30 p.m.
Place: University of Music Münster | Ludgeriplatz 1 | 48151 Münster
Admission: AK 10 € / children, youth and students free

What does a metallophone sound like? What is an H2Orchestra? What is behind a sound channel?
The only way to answer these questions is to take a trip to Ibbenbüren’s city center. There, on June 3, the Mobile Music Museum by artist Michael Bradke can be tried out and explored. Sound art to touch and do yourself!

Location: City center | 49477 Ibbenbüren

Albrecht Fersch, the performance, action, sound and installation artist from Berlin, brings the spaces of a vacant store in Ibbenbüren’s city center to new life with his installations “Gong-Gang“ and “Tam-Tam-Stamm“.
Hanging from the ceiling are cake pans, pots, bells, tin cans, the grille of a fan, a disused cymbal of a drum kit. With construction helmets on their heads, equipped with mallets of different lengths depending on their height, the visitors walk along under the objects and elicit a wide variety of sounds from them by touching the mallets. If several people move in the room at the same time, wondrous temporary random compositions are created.

Part of the interactive sound ensemble is also the “Tam-Tam-Stamm“ by Albrecht Fersch. A large hollowed-out tree trunk equipped with variously twisted metal rods. It can be played by the audience like a musical instrument. There are no limits to curiosity and the joy of discovery, each sound work is a unique improvisation!

Opening: 04.06. at 11.00 a.m. | with sound performance by Albrecht Fersch on the “Tam-Tam-Stamm“
Finissage: 16.07. at 11.00 a.m.
Location: Kanalstraße 2 | 49477 Ibbenbüren
