Past Exhibitions

Urbane Künste Ruhr does not have its own exhibition spaces, but activates and creates public spaces through various projects in different forms. All formats that show several works and performances at the same time are summarised under exhibitions. This includes the large Ruhr Ding trilogy, each covering four cities from 2019 to 2023, as well as Urbane Künste Ruhr's regular contribution to the Ruhrtriennale and other projects outside of the series.

Unna

Begleitet wird die Grand Snail Tour von Künstler*innen aus dem Bereich Literatur, Fotografie und Zeichnung, die zeitgleich zum Aufenthalt des Tourmobils, Eindrücke und Reflexionen aus jeweils derselben Stadt sammeln und diese sie visuell oder literarisch ins Bild setzen. So entsteht ein Paratext zur 3-jährigen Tour, der in Form einer Reisechronik, ein Kaleidoskop an Geschichten, Verbindungen, Momentaufnahmen in den 53 Städten der Region als Gleichzeitigkeiten und Ungleichzeitigkeiten zur Grand Snail Tour sichtbar werden lässt.
