Chris Hinze in Cottbus: An Exhibition Between Space, Silence, and Artistic Path
The Brandenburg State Museum for Modern Art presents Chris Hinze. Fragments of a Path, a two-part exhibition that makes the Cottbus artist experienceable in a rare density. In the Diesel Power Plant, a new, site-specific installation meets an overview of central groups of works; the presentation has been running at BLMK since April 25, 2026, and connects contemporary art with intensive contemplation of the works.

Room of Silence: Installation as Art Experience
In the exhibition hall Machine House 1, the specially developed room-filling work Room of Silence unfolds. Sculptural and architectural interventions transform the space into an atmospherically dense experiential space where movement, perception, and contemplation come together. The installation opens a quiet, also physically palpable exhibition atmosphere. ([cottbus.de](https://cottbus.de/veranstaltungen/chris-hinze-fragmente-eines-wegs-51/))
Groups of Works Between Graphics, Painting, and Sculpture
The second part of the exhibition in Switch House 3 focuses on Hinze's artistic oeuvre. Works from various phases of creation are shown, including graphics, painting, sculpture, and plastic artworks. This curated juxtaposition makes developments visible and emphasizes Hinze's experimental approach to material, space, and imagery.

An Artist from Cottbus with a Clear Signature
Chris Hinze, born in Cottbus in 1969, has been working as a freelance artist since 1992 as a self-taught individual. His practice includes sculpture, installation, graphics, painting, and performance. Recurring themes can also be seen on his official artist page: spiritual moments, symbolic imagery, and the search for art that points beyond the purely visible.

The Museum as a Suitable Resonance Space
The Diesel Power Plant Cottbus is part of BLMK and displays its collections and exhibitions in an industrially shaped, yet excellently suited building for contemporary art. The museum is open Tuesday to Sunday from 11 AM to 7 PM; the exhibition rooms, event hall, and mukk. are accessible via elevators. The museum's collection includes tens of thousands of works of modern and contemporary art. ([blmk.de](https://www.blmk.de/?utm_source=openai))
