As one of around 40 exhibition venues in Hamburg, the Kunsthaus Hamburg is inviting people to visit exhibitions in the city with Free admission on Reformation Day. At the Kunsthaus, visitors can experience Nicholas Odhiambo Mboya's exhibition Utopia - Dystopia. In his multimedia works, he addresses the socio-political realities of his country of origin, Kenya, as well as experiences of the African diaspora in Germany. In his first institutional solo exhibition, the Hamburg-based artist reflects on the tension between idealized notions of belonging and lived experiences of exclusion.
Visitors are invited to get creative themselves at a workshop station in the foyer from 4 to 6 pm. To accompany the exhibition, they can use the workshop to explore their own identity and attributions as reflected in administrative procedures. They will translate their personal experiences into collages and self-portraits. Inspired by Nicholas Mboya's paintings and drawings, they will cut, glue and paint.
The Kunsthaus bar is open and offers cool drinks and coffee before or after the exhibition visit.
