Kunstverein in Hamburg is pleased to present the winners of the Villa Romana Prize to a wide audience in the exhibition series #UNFINISHEDTRACES. The Villa Romana Prize is Germany's oldest art prize and has been awarded to four artists every year since 1905. Prize winners include Max Beckmann, Käthe Kollwitz, Georg Baselitz, Anna Oppermann, and many more artists who have left a mark on the history of modern art. Villa Romana continues to be one of the few residencies participating in many regional co-operative programs, closely combining the residency with a curatorial program. Artists Jeewi Lee, Christophe Ndabananiye, Lerato Shadi, and Viron Erol Vert were the 2018 Villa Romana Prize winners selected by Nasan Tur (artist) and Bonaventure Soh Bejeng Ndikung (director of SAVVY Contemporary, Berlin).
With #UNFINISHEDTRACES, the artists themselves have provided the title for the series. It refers to shared qualities in their works, which each pursue the search for traces in different ways; memories, untold (hi)stories, the artist's personal biography, and the attempt to experience what is absent are focal points in the content of each project. The title's reference to what is left unfinished opens up a field of tension between the future and the past. Every exhibition is the realization of a possibility – ambiguity, permeability, and mobility play a large role here, both on the side of the institution as well as on the side of the artists. An experiment emerges that points beyond the specific projects. Supplemented by an online program, a multifaceted dialogue will develop over three months.
The exhibition series is produced in cooperation with Villa Romana Florence.
