The Schirn is expanding its exhibition “In A Silent Way. Sculptures Around the Schirn” to include three new site-specific works that engage with the changing conditions of the fall and winter seasons: wind and weather, the increasing darkness, and the shifting wildlife. To kick off the second episode, the exhibition’s curators will speak with the artists participating in this episode and explain the concept behind the new projects.

Admission is free. The event will be held in English.
