Floral and Fluid at the Kunstverein Duisburg: Where Painting, Photography, and Sculpture Flow Together
With Floral and Fluid, the Kunstverein Duisburg e.V. opens an exhibition that focuses on the changeable. The two artistic positions of Uwe Priefert and Katharina von Koschembahr revolve around movement, surface, and transformation - creating an art experience in which painting, photography, and sculpture permeate each other.
A Space for Transitions and Perception
The title refers to a central theme in art history: flowing as a metaphor for change, time, and perception. In the Kunstverein Duisburg, this unfolds into an exhibition atmosphere that focuses less on the individual work and more on the dialogue between image, material, and space. Here, floral allusions meet flowing color traces, figurative impressions blend into abstract openness.
Uwe Priefert: Painting from the State of Movement
According to his work statements, Uwe Priefert works with photos of natural motifs such as water, grass, and reeds that flow into the painting process. From this combination of photography and painting, a visual language emerges in which the figurative gradually dissolves. The contemplation of the works gains a special tension: The eye follows traces, reflections, and color fields without ever settling completely. This is where the aesthetic experience of his works lies.
Katharina von Koschembahr: Figure, Surface, and the Power of the Atmospheric
Katharina von Koschembahr is a painter living and working in Düsseldorf and Brühl, who has emerged over the years with figurative and atmospheric visual language. Her biography refers to exhibitions in Düsseldorf, Bonn, Brühl, and other places, as well as her memberships and artistic collaborations. In combination with Priefert's works, a multi-layered view of color, surface, and image space opens up - a play between form and dissolution, proximity and distance.
Curating in the Name of Flowing
The Kunstverein Duisburg sees itself as an artistic laboratory and a place of exchange. For this exhibition, this means: The works are not experienced as isolated individual pieces, but as part of a curated context that sharpens perception and hints at art-historical references. Those interested in contemporary painting, photography, and sculptural presence will find an inspiring access to current artistic questions here.
Visit, Opening Hours, and Final Event
The exhibition runs from September 4, 2026, to September 27, 2026. The regular opening hours of the Kunstverein are Fridays from 5 PM to 7 PM as well as Saturdays and Sundays from 3 PM to 6 PM. A discussion on art is announced for the final event - an ideal moment to experience the works once again in direct dialogue.
Conclusion
Floral and Fluid promises a sensual, intelligently curated exhibition about the becoming and passing of forms. Between painting, photography, and sculpture, a space of concentration is created where art is not explained but experienced. Anyone wanting to discover contemporary art in Duisburg should visit this exhibition live.
