The full title of this article by Catherine Hickley (The Art Newspaper) is “Hew Locke, Oscar Murillo among artists who will take part in Skulptur Projekte Münster 2027.” Hickley reports that artists Hew Locke (UK/Guyana) and Oscar Murillo (Colombia) are among those taking part in Skulptur Projekte Münster 2027. Other artists will be announced in the months leading up to the opening of Skulptur Projekte Münster on June 12, 2027. The exhibition will run until October 3, 2027.
Hew Locke, Oscar Murillo, Iza Tarasewicz, Selma Selman and Róza El-Hassan are among the artists taking part in the 2027 edition of Skulptur Projekte Münster, an exhibition that takes place every ten years in the northern German city.
Next year’s exhibition will expand beyond the city centre to neighbourhoods in transformation, according to a statement from the organisation. The artistic directors are Ivet Ćurlin, Nataša Ilić, and Sabina Sabolović, the members of the Zagreb curatorial collective What, How & for Whom (WHW). They plan to include around 30 locations and projects in total.
“In 2027, Skulptur Projekte will engage in a particularly meaningful way with the diversity of our city,” Tilman Fuchs, the mayor of Münster, said in the statement. “By focusing on different vicinities, the exhibition makes processes of urban transformation visible and brings Skulptur Projekte into dialogue with new neighbourhoods.”
The non-central districts of the city to be incorporated into Skulptur Projekte include Kinderhaus, which originated in the 14th century as a home for the sick outside the city gates in the north of Münster. [. . .]
Locke’s contribution will be on view in the city centre at the Krameramtshaus, which was built in 1589 and served as the meeting place and administrative headquarters for local merchants. Selman’s installation, which draws on her own family history and explores the “cycles of globalised labour”, according to a release, will be shown at a 19th-century cemetery. [. . .]
