Furore

with Nina Paskowski
5.6.2026 – 4.3.2027
Opening 4.6.2026, from 6 pm

The exhibition by Nina Paszkowski, titled “Furore”, refers to the spectacle that has long shaped the Bärenzwinger: the principle of display and staging—whether through living animals, ideologically charged urban identity, or contemporary art. “Furore” describes a form of public attention that moves between fascination and unease. What attracts and excites can also turn into indignation or anger. Paszkowski approaches this anger through mythological figures whose name resonates in the exhibition title: the Furies. In Greek mythology, they appear as furious avengers who, through an act of mercy, undergo a process of becoming human and transform into the benevolent Eumenides.

Sediment

with Qusay Awad
16.10.2026 – 14.03.2027
Opening 15.10.2026, from 6 pm

The exhibition by architect and multimedia artist Qusay Awad draws on archival materials, architectural research, field recordings and site-specific observations. Through sculptures, installations and sound installation, Awad explores the question of how architecture preserves memories – as material artefacts and spatial imprints – and how traces of past uses haunt the site, like ghosts of times gone by.
