Exchange Program Thessaloniki – Leipzig 2023

In October and November, Margret Hoppe will begin the second part of her fellowship as part of the "Thessaloniki - Leipzig Exchange Program" of Halle 14 / City of Leipzig / Goethe Institute Thessaloniki. The theme of the residency is a photographic research on places of German occupation during the Second World War and on the traces of Jewish history found in the architectures and streets of the city.

 

 

Reflective Architecture – Virtual exhibition

For the current installment of the Reflective Architecture project, artists Elsa Grégoire, Margret Hoppe and Sebastian Stumpf prepared works in relation with the Bowlingtreff, Leipzig’s former municipal bowling alley. A serial project initiated by Margret Hoppe, Reflective Architecture was conceived with the aim of developing works in different media with reference to buildings of various kinds. Opened to the public in 1987, the former recreational facility in Leipzig, which grew out of local civic action, largely occupies the underground spaces of a former electrical converter station on Wilhelm-Leuschner-Platz.
Kept in use until 1997, the Bowlingtreff is set to become the new location for the Leipzig Natural History Museum. The works on view on the exhibition website were created between February and May 2022 and show the place in an intermediate state of lived history, neglect and impending conversion.  Click here to go to the website.
 
The project was supported by the program "Neustart Kultur" by the Federal Republic of Germany.
 
 
 

We connect spaces and people. In the blink of an eye.

I'm happy to announce the launch of our agency for achitectural design "blink". Felix Adler, Maéva Baudoin, Sebastian Stumpf and myself teamed up to realise projects in the field of urban photography. The focus is on the builing, the space and the people who live in it. Have a look at our website and do get in touch if you like to know more or like to collaborate.
