Gerrit Frohne-Brinkmann’s works stand in the tension between man-made present and references to a glorified age. Backdrop reinterprets the maritime identity of Hamburg: With the help of airbrush specialists, Frohne-Brinkmann visualises prehistoric underwater landscapes on metallic partitions and wall elements. Installed in an underground car park (i.e. below sea level) the scenario presented here could also depict a reality after the disappearance of man.
MORETogether with a team of artists from Hamburg, Sebastian Quack is currently studying the emotive proximity with historical or fictional seafaring material in order to transpose the existential conflicts they address into the present and relate it to quotidian life as we experience it today. For IMAGINE THE CITY they develop an app-based work that relates the traditional passenger ship Seute Deern with its surroundings in the HafenCity.
