The artistic-curatorial alliance between NEBYULA (Munich) and Galerie Mitte (Bremen) is a collaboration that highlights both geographic and economic contrasts. While Bavaria is Germany’s economically strongest state, Bremen sits on the opposite end of the spectrum. Yet, within this divergence, surprisingly similar systemic challenges appear: precarious working conditions, inadequate funding, and often unattainable institutional access for artists and cultural workers.
ZUCKER is a platform explicitly focused on issues of value creation, consumerism, and classism—complexities that are omnipresent but often taboo in the art system. The ten participating artists approach these questions through their practice and their backgrounds as cultural workers. The work of Rosanna Marie Pondorf address the theme of the (im-)materiality of value creation.
