Project description

NOVA art space is pleased to announce the opening of the group exhibition CHAMPAGNE SUPERNOVA with works by Larissa Barth, Taissa Fromme, Samira Gebhardt, Lisa Hopf and Jannis Uffrecht on July 15th, 2021, 5-8pm.

While all the artists pursue their own themes and questions, they are united above all by the period in which their final projects were created. For many, the time after graduation is marked by joy at their achievement and perhaps a little melancholy at the end of the formative study period, but it is also always a departure into the unknown, and in times of a global pandemic, an additional challenge. The exhibition CHAMPAGNE SUPERNOVA celebrates the work of the graduates once again, this time in a fitting manner, and thus encourages them to take a positive look into the future.

On the one hand, the exhibition title refers to the cosmic event of the supernova, in which a massive star at the end of its life briefly acquires a tremendous luminosity through a violent explosion (pun intended). On the other hand, CHAMPAGNE SUPERNOVA is based on the eponymous song by the Britpop band Oasis, which addresses the changes in the lives of young adults and the intoxicating nature of this time, but also looks back on these important years: 'Some day you will find me / In a champagne supernova in the sky.'
