Inside

A meditative art evening between presence and void

The workshop VoidTide – A Ritual for the Void at the Lehmbruck Museum connects contemporary media art with the current exhibition Anish Kapoor. On September 4, 2026, at 6 PM, an art experience will be created that places perception, memory, and the creative potential of absence at the center.

A workshop that turns void into art

The multimedia artist SOFF invites participants to an artistic ritual that gains new meaning from loss, lack, and open space. In a relaxed exhibition atmosphere, personal thoughts flow into a growing installation and transform the audience from spectators to co-creators.

Anish Kapoor as a resonance space

The format builds upon the major special exhibition Anish Kapoor, which establishes an intense dialogue between monumental installations, mirror sculptures, and early pigment works at the Lehmbruck Museum. Kapoor's work has revolved around questions of body, space, consciousness, and infinity for decades. VoidTide addresses exactly that: Working with void becomes an aesthetic experience that does not explain but makes tangible.

A museum as a place of perception

The Lehmbruck Museum is regarded as a house of sculpture and one of the prominent museum buildings of the post-war era. The architecture enhances the impact of such formats because light, material, and space react particularly precisely with each other here. Those who engage in the workshop experience not only a supporting program but a concentrated form of cultural education that closely intertwines art education and contemporary art.

Atmosphere, exchange, and an unusual evening

The evening promises not only creative impulses but also an open, sociable setting with opportunities for conversation. Cocktails and exchanges with other guests make VoidTide an art evening that combines thoughtful space and encounters. Especially for art enthusiasts who wish to experience exhibitions not only visually but with all senses, this format develops a special allure.

Conclusion: VoidTide – A Ritual for the Void offers a rare access to Anish Kapoor's thematic world and combines media art, participation, and museum experience into an inspiring evening. Those seeking contemporary art as a physical and mental experience should experience this workshop live at the Lehmbruck Museum.
