David Jablonowski

©Frey

David Jablonowski (*1982 in Bochum) studied at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie, Amsterdam and the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf. In his artistic work he deals with communication, its codes and formats and examines how media transport and change content. As a sculptor, he translates the diverse interconnections into mostly multimedia sculptures. Having grown up in the Ruhr area and being influenced by industrial change, he is particularly interested in industrial materials, their creation and infrastructures. Thus the formal language in his work has developed in recent years along the lines of the latest technological achievements, including those in the materials industry. »Public Hybrid« at Emscher-Weg is his first permanent work in public space.

Hamminkeln

The Grand Snail Tour will be accompanied by literary, photographic and illustrative artists, who will collect impressions and reflections from the same city at the same time as the Trailer is there and put them into visual or literary form. The result is a paratext on the three-year tour, a travel chronicle in the form of a kaleidoscope of stories, connections and snapshots in the 53 cities of the region, revealing the simultaneities and non-simultaneities of the Grand Snail Tour.

Hamminkeln by Erdem Teper

so müssen wohl die bäume über die menschen denken, 
der mensch ist ewig damit beschäftigt 
versteht, dass alles und jeder irgendwo
eins ist 
versteht, dass alles –  liebt und lacht und lebt in frieden existiert; stoa
versteht, dass es ist – ebenbild 
wenn mensch findet sich selbst 
vor uralten baumrinden 
ein wesen schaut das andere an, 
am ende haben beide einander
und somit sich selbst erkannt 
beide aus gerüst, beide aus haut 
nur dass der baum im wald sich zutraut
zurecht, dass er den menschen überlebt; 
während die zeit bereits 
das leichentuch des menschen webt 
und der baum schaut den menschen an, 
beide aus haut, rinde und knochen 
nur hat der neue mensch 
seine beziehung zur natur unterbrochen
