ZENTRUM highlights models of self-organization, decentralized networks and collective work. As a contact zone of different art spaces, the exhibition offers a space to jointly develop approaches for solidary structures and the sharing of resources. How can these shared spaces be maintained and organized? How can collective structures be preserved from institutional fixation?
The exhibition space acts as a hub to other exhibitions taking place online and in other art spaces. ZENTRUM thus articulates a network of relationships with new alliances and collaborations.
With digital and analog works by: Samuel Bich, Moving Target Collective (Alexa Steinbrück, Natalie Sontopski, Amelie Goldfuß), Fabian Hampel, Vanessa Opoku, Nadine Rangosch, Lion Sauterleute, Merlin Stadler, Paul Valentin.

The DIALOG billboard, together with a second, itinerant billboard, forms the foundation for various exhibition projects. By activating both walls simultaneously, two distinct locations are continuously placed in dialogue with one another. In the space between these image carriers, moments of connection and mediation emerge through diverse artistic approaches. These interventions open up questions about the particularities of each site and their interrelations, while also challenging both global and local contextualisations of the images.
How can forms of relationships in the art field and conditions of collectivity be thought differently out of the crisis? What are the infrastructural conditions and limitations of an assembly, a community and its discourses?
In an ongoing process, the spatial setting of the exhibition IDEAL FORUM is activated, transformed, appropriated and reinterpreted in several episodes by different artists and cooperating art spaces. An experimental field between autonomy and interdependence emerges, in which hierarchies dissolve, authorships overlap, and the infrastructure of the "forum" is continuously unlearned, rehearsed, discarded, and renegotiated in a collaborative process. In the context of the self-organized art space - as platform and para-institution - the exhibition serves as a model for investigations into dominant aspects of platform design and possible forms of a subversive, activist infrastructure.
