Exhibition Series "Science meets Art"

"A recipe to turn an iphone into bubble gum" by Marco Habeck

After our relaunch of the exhibition series "Science meets Art" last year with a group exhibition of seven artists, we are pleased to welcome Marco Habeck. "A recipe to turn an iphone into bubble gum" is the title of his exhibition, which will open on Thursday, February 23, 2023, at 6:00 PM at Fraunhofer ENAS.

You have the opportunity to engage in a direct exchange with Marco Habeck about his work during an artist talk on Thursday, October 5, 2023, at 6:00 PM and then accompany him on a tour of the exhibition.

Marco Habeck thinks of form, independent of material. Visual elements from the world of objects are fragmented, reconstructed and manipulated in software-based systems. Reduced to their form, the synthesized but spatially extended bodies become containers that can be refilled. For Marco Habeck, even the concept of "material" itself is conceivable as a vessel that is contextually refilled.
