We consciously and subconsciously travel various kinds of distance every day--distance both literal and figurative, physical and spiritual. The work of Danish artist Jeppe Hein (born 1974), and its staging at the Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg, address this theme. In a labyrinth of spaces, paths, intersections and squares, visitors not only encounter the minimally, kinetically and socially oriented works by Hein, but are also surprised by new and site-specific works. After his burnout in December 2009, the artist expanded his spectrum of material: sound, resonance, silence, scents or breath characterize his new works and reflect his examination of Eastern philosophies and practices such as Buddhism, yoga and meditation. The catalogue is as personal as his watercolor journal in the exhibition, as Hein becomes palpable as both artist and person in a very open conversation with curator Uta Ruhkamp, as well as in essays by Finn Janning and Peter Høeg.

Hanna Hellsten creates inspiring installations by incorporating video, sculpture and painting with impressive ease. Her installations operate autobiographically, revolving around different eccentric characters and situations out of Hanna’s life. In all, her art work is challenging, cocky and confident. Seldom does art feel so convincing.

The Ice Towers of Energy, Norwegian representation at the Biennale of Sao Paulo in Brazil in 1996, constitutes the last stage of a long travel within the universe of heat and cold. The principle is set forth by two towers, who, by the artist’s use of light, color, and material generate either heat or cold to the viewer who steps inside. This catalogue describes the technique in detail as well as provides photographs.

Making sense from nonsense is a constant theme in Hiller’s work. Her concern with the paranormal, the strange and the eclectic raises our awareness of aspects of daily life that somehow evade attention. Meaning is evoked not stated and she seems to find within objects and images we consider meaningless, a new and coherent world.
