We are all Astronauts -
Universe Richard Buckminster Fuller
reflected in contemporary art
Exhibition at MARTa Herford, Germany,

Commissioned by: Roland Nachtigäller / Director / MARTa Herford
Curated by Markus Richter / European Art Projects
in cooperation with the MARTa team

The exhibition continues the artistic research on late modern visionary architecture and urbanism, which we started in 2008 with the project Megastructure Reloaded. We very much would like to thank MARTa director Roland Nachtigäller for the invitation to realize an exhibition on Buckminster Fuller & contemporary art in collaboration with his team. The dynamic and polymorphic galleries of MARTa, built according to plans of Frank Gehry, provide a perfect backdrop for a show on Fuller, who had been rebelling his entire life against the predominance of the cube and the inflexibility of the x-, y-, z-coordinates.
