Presented By: University of Michigan Museum of Art (UMMA)
UMMA Projects: Jakob Kolding
UMMA is pleased to present the first solo exhibition in a North American museum of Berlin- based artist Jakob Kolding. Kolding's work revolves around the experience of life in the contemporary built environment, particularly the relationships and contradictions that emerge between how architectural spaces are planned and how they are actively used. His collages, drawings, posters, and mixed-media sculptures incorporate a wide range of source material, sampling and mixing the visual idiom of modernist art and architecture, the language of sociological inquiry, and such popular cultural forms as hip-hop and electronic music, skateboarding, and soccer. Kolding's dynamic compositions encourage us to actively question the relationship between space and behavior, and to imagine forms of self-expression that use the built environment in creative new ways.
