| Summary: | In the fine arts the 1990s are associated with conceptual sharpness and formal aesthetic reduction. But also with freedom of formats and expansion of curatorial action. During this time, the busy couple Axel and Barbara Haubrok began to build up a considerable collection, the focus of which is on international trends in conceptual art. The collectors are particularly interested in sculptures and objects in museal size, but also in stringent positions of photography and film, as well as abstract painting. Minimalist, often black and white or monochrome, but also charming and cheerful are the works in their collection, which now comprises over 1,000 works. The most characteristic of these are the works behind which there is ample humor even when they appear strictly and formally factual. The Haubrok couple were invited by the Neues Museum to work out a very personal presentation for the large exhibition hall. The exhibition format, which changes during the term, also stands for the conceptual thinking of the collectors. Highlights from the collection are shown in two stages in very different forms of presentation. The parenthesis is that some of the selected artist positions are present in both parts and thus appear in very different contexts. Exhibition: Neues Museum Nürnberg, Germany (part 1: 25.10.2019 - 06. 01.2020; part 2: 17.01. - 01.03.2020). |
