Henrik Nieratschker

Henrik Nieratschker's (born 1990) artistic work deals with the social implications of our lives in the midst of digital infrastructure. In media installations, environments, and situations, as well as analogue and digital publication formats, Henrik Nieratschker combines a pragmatic-methodical approach of design with free, exploratory approaches of art. In his work he uses artistic, creative, and technical methods (video, graphics, sound, sculpture, electronics, programming, and much more) and provokes new insights that can hardly arise in other contexts.

He is co-founder of the artist collective and label Research and Waves, which since 2015 has developed record releases, exhibitions, and events.

His work has been shown in exhibition projects at GAK Bremen, Changing Room Berlin, Arebyte Gallery and Victoria and Albert Museum London, and 3331 Arts Chiyoda Tokyo, among others. 
 

From October to December 2022, Henrik Nieratschker is a resident artist in the program Zu Gast bei Urbane Künste Ruhr at Haus der Geschichte des Ruhrgebiets Bochum.

Dorsten

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. Chroncler in Dorsten is Anna Haifisch.

„Vorbei am Baumarkt und dem geschlossenen Wettbüro, nach zwei schaurigen Eisenbahnbrücken, stand da plötzlich dieser kleine Kohlenwagen mit dem Namen des Angelsportvereins als liebevolle Erinnerung an alte Zeiten. Statt Erz und Kohle lugten ein paar erfrorene Blümchen hervor. Mit dem kleinen Wägelchen wäre ich gern durch Dorsten gerollt, musste aber leider meine kalten Füße benutzen.“ - Anna Haifisch
