Future Then, Future Now.

Frank Oehring and Jürgen Mayer H. in dialogue about design in the present.

Wednesday, September 24, 6:00 PM
The tour and conversation begin at 6:30 PM.

Was the future better in the past? Do we have a human need for retro-futuristic nostalgia? And when is architecture perceived and valued as “futuristic” by its contemporaries?

Half a century ago, artist and designer Frank Oehring created a milestone of futuristic (and functional) light art in architecture with the large light sculpture and guidance system of the International Congress Center (ICC) Berlin. Only in recent years has this work regained growing attention and late recognition. It now seems finally to have arrived in its present, still radiating the spirit of optimistic speculation about the future.

On Wednesday evening, the exhibition “PLACESHIPS” will – in the spirit of the ICC – become a “dialogue machine”: Models, sculptures, collages, and drawings will frame a guided conversation between Frank Oehring, Jürgen Mayer H., and the audience. Light sculpture meets Metropol Parasol, rapidograph sketch meets safety patterns, the ICC “brain” meets spaceship-like 3D models, and the present meets the future.

The conversation is part of the “Encounters” series within the exhibition “J.MAYER.H – PLACESHIPS” at the Deutsches Design Museum.

EXHIBITION OPENING

The Architecture Exhibition of Tomorrow

The question of what role architectural exhibitions will play in the future, what they will look like, and which media they will use is becoming increasingly urgent. Which audience do they address, and what should they achieve? What is the relationship between analog artifacts and digital information? Will exhibitions remain pre-conceived formats, or will visitors be involved and able to transform them? All of these questions are also of utmost importance to Architektur Galerie Berlin. In keeping with the proven practice of creating exhibitions through dialogue between the gallery, curators, and architects, selected studios were asked for ideas and suggestions for possible responses. They were asked to consider their experiences in communicating their own work and their teaching activities.

We are part of the exhibition with "Öffnungszeiten".

PLACESHIPS

J. MAYER H. - PLACESHIPS

PLACESHIPS is an immersive dive into the multiverse of J.MAYER.H’s creative cosmos. More than just buildings, these are living thought structures – bold, biomorphic entities born from sketches, models, and bozzetti that unlock entire constellations of parallel possibilities. This is quantum architecture: unpredictable, nonlinear, radically alive. Breaking free from earthly conventions, J.MAYER.H’s – PLACESHIPS rise from the flat grid of the planet’s surface, the "Monumento Continuo", echoing the utopian visions of Superstudio – yet aiming even further.
Visitors are invited on an interdimensional voyage – between Planetary Sparkle and Cosmic Latte – where form becomes fiction, and fiction becomes future.
