Chris Hinze at the Diesel Power Plant: An Exhibition Between Silence, Space, and Material

With Chris Hinze. Fragments of a Path, the Brandenburg State Museum of Modern Art at the Diesel Power Plant Cottbus presents an exhibition that focuses on spatial perception, sculptural interventions, and the visual language of a Cottbus artist. The presentation combines a site-specific installation with an overview of central groups of works, creating a multifaceted art experience.

A Space that Changes

In Machine House 1, Room of Silence unfolds, a room-filling installation specially developed for the museum. This work transforms the exhibition space into an atmospherically denser situation through sculptural-architectural interventions, where movement, perception, and contemplation intertwine. The audience is not only a spectator here but is physically involved in the experience of the work. ([cottbus.de](https://cottbus.de/cb-events-test/chris-hinze-fragmente-eines-wegs-56/))

The Œuvre Between Graphics, Painting, and Sculpture

The second part of the exhibition in Control House 3 brings together works from various phases of creation. It showcases graphics, paintings, sculptures, and three-dimensional works that make Hinze's experimental approach to material, space, and visual language visible. It is this connection of artistic concentration and installation openness that shapes the aesthetic experience of the exhibition.

Art Historical Context and Museum Significance

Chris Hinze, born in Cottbus in 1969, has been working freelance since 1992 in the fields of sculpture, installation, graphics, painting, and performance. His practice is closely linked to site-specific settings, public spaces, and the connection of architecture, nature, and sound.
