Irma Hünerfauth – Speaking Boxes
Planned City Cinema
Kurateret af Elisa R. Linn og Lennart Wolff
Simian præsenterer Speaking Boxes, den første posthume soloudstilling af den tyske kunstner Irma Hünerfauth (1907-1998), som samler hendes værkserie af komplekse kinetiske multimedieobjekter, der blev skabt fra begyndelsen af 1970'erne til midten af 1980'erne. Udstillingen udfolder kunstnerens poetiske, satiriske og kritiske refleksioner over det moderne livs sociale relationer - fremmedgørelse, kærlighed og længsel – samt hvordan sammenhængen mellem fortællinger om fremskridt og den vestlige modernitets voldelige ressourceudvinding, har udmøntet sig i krige, miljøforurening og udryddelse.
Gennem 1950'erne og 1960'erne arbejdede Hünerfauth, der dengang studerede hos kunstneren Conrad Westphal, hovedsageligt inden for rammerne af abstrakt ekspressionisme, action painting og informalisme. I de turbulente år omkring 1968 vendte hun sig væk fra maleriet for i stedet at fokusere på at skabe skulpturelle objekter. Omkring dette tidspunkt førte et samarbejde med den danske komponist Ilja Bergh og den tyske kunstnergruppe Gruppe K til, at Hünerfauth i højere grad eksperimenterede med lyd, musik og feedback, som hun efterfølgende begyndte at integrere i sin kunstneriske praksis. Fra 1970'erne og frem, arbejdede hun med detaljerede sammensætninger af forbrugersamfundets skrald i nøje komponerede i akrylglaskasser: dele af elektriske kontakter, metalplader, knopper, ledninger og plastikaffald blandt andre ting. Disse interaktive objekter, som kunstneren under pseudonymet IRMAnipulations kaldte Vibrationsobjekte (Vibrationsobjekter) og Sprechende Kästen (Talende Kasser), afspejlede den voksende interesse for den nye kybernetik og systemteori, samt betydningen heraf for kunsten og samfundet.
Sideløbende og i dialog med Hünerfauths værker vises et video- og filmprogram i daglig rotation i Simians andet udstillingsrum, der er omdannet til midlertidig biograf. Programmet, der har fået titlen Planned City Cinema, uddyber Hünerfauths interesse for samspillet mellem naturlige og sociale systemer, både i kunsten og i samfundet som helhed, sat i forhold til det dominerende paradigme af udvindingsstyret udvikling. Værker af Union Gaucha Productions, Black Audio Film Collective, Dora Budor og Noah Barker, Harun Farocki og Pilvi Takala dokumenterer, dissekerer og undersøger produktionen, opretholdelsen og medieringen af det bebyggede miljø og de ideologier, økonomier og magtforhold, der materialiserer sig heri. Dermed lægger de også op til refleksioner over Simians urbane omgivelser i det nybyggede Ørestad.
Speaking Boxes i dialog med Planned City Cinema er kurateret af km temporaer / Elisa R. Linn og Lennart Wolff.
Udstillingerne er støttet af Amager Vest Lokaludvalg, Knud Højgaards Fond, A.P. Møller Fonden og Rådet for Visuel Kunst.

Irma Hünerfauth – Speaking Boxes
Planned City Cinema
Curated by Elisa R. Linn and Lennart Wolff
Simian presents Speaking Boxes, the first posthumous solo exhibition of German artist Irma Hünerfauth (1907-1998) that brings together her complex oeuvre of kinetic multimedia objects made between the early 1970s and mid-1980s. The exhibition unfolds the artist’s poetic, satirical, and critical reflections on the conditions and social relations of modern everyday life—alienation, love, and longing—as well as the correlation between narratives of progress and the extractive violence of Western modernity that plays out in wars, environmental pollution, and extinction.
Throughout the 1950s and 1960s, Hünerfauth, who studied with Conrad Westphal, worked predominantly in the context of Abstract Expressionism, Action Painting, and Art Informel. During the tumultuous years around 1968, she turned away from painting and toward making objects. Around that time, collaborative performances with Danish composer Ilja Bergh and German artist group Gruppe K led Hünerfauth to extensively experiment with sound, music, and feedback, which she henceforth combined into her artistic practice. From the 1970s onwards, she assembled delicate and detailed compositions using consumer society’s detritus in acrylic glass boxes: electrical switch parts, sheet metal pieces, knobs, wires, and plastic waste, among other things. These interactive objects, which the artist under the moniker IRMAnipulations, called Vibrationsobjekte (Vibration Objects) and Sprechende Kästen (Speaking Boxes), echoed a growing interest in emerging cybernetics and systems theory and their implication for art and society in a unique way.
Parallel to and in dialogue with Hünerfauth’s works, a video and film program is shown in daily rotation at Simian’s second exhibition space that is converted into a temporary cinema. Titled Planned City Cinema, the program expands on Hünerfauth’s interest in the interplay between natural and social systems both in art and society at large vis-à-vis the dominant paradigm of extractive development. Works by Union Gaucha Productions, Black Audio Film Collective, Dora Budor and Noah Barker, Harun Farocki, and Pilvi Takala document, dissect, and scrutinize the production, maintenance, and medialization of the built environment and the ideologies, economies, and power relations it materializes. Thereby, they prompt a reflection on Simian’s urban surroundings in the “new town” Ørestad as well.
Speaking Boxes in dialogue with Planned City Cinema are curated by km temporaer / Elisa R. Linn and Lennart Wolff.
The exhibitions are supported by Amager Vest Lokaludvalg, Knud Højgaards Fond, A.P. Møller Fonden, and Rådet for Visuel Kunst.
