Sandflug / Sandflight

17:11 min / uhd / 5.1 / dcp / d 2023

The surf tosses sand on the beach, the wind blows it inland. Nothing remains as it is, or where it was. Everything is in motion: the 200-million-year-old sand, the dunes, the sea, and the countless creatures that make their home amongst its grains. Yet human interventions such as dikes, coastal protection measures, and sand filling have made the dynamic line between water and land inelastic and stiff.

FRISE showcase gallery

Dear pedestrians and strollers,
we are pleased to present in our FRISE showcase gallery the thirdteenth in-house presentation since the end of March. From 29 June to 9 July 2020 a work by Doro Carl will be on display.

In Hamburg there are 23 exhibition venues organized by artists, which have founded the initiative Art Off Hamburg. All these places of exchange and exhibitions of art are closed for an indefinite period of time. Thus the work of the visual artists threatens to disappear from the public scene. This is why we are now using our showcase, because our work continues undiminished.

Grounds Rising

On former railway-owned grounds the “New Heart of Altona” is being built with a public park that is meant to integrate heritage protected relics. Only that past residents from crafts, art and music who had made use of the formerly neglected landmark buildings are definitely not meant to be integrated in the new rise of the area.

Brief Future

In the longterm observation of the Große Bergstraße in the quarter Altona in Hamburg activists, shop owners and artists of the surrounding neighbourhood describe the massive changes within their street.
At the recent occassion of the first Ikea store within a central area of a city different visions and interests on urban development emerge. Demolition and new construction remind of already shattered gentrification strategies of Germany’s first pedestrian zone.

persona non data

Fourteen people share their stories of fleeing from their native countries. By foot, on boats or with the help of escape agents, they were chased away by war, toxic gas, torture, fear and hunger.
Some are still kids, strong only through the courage of despair, led by their hopes and wishes.
Their personal stories of and experiences with their arrival in Hamburg, in the county of Pinneberg, in container camps, sleepless nights and the struggle with paperwork intertwine with a “banning space”, which subjects them to registration, restrictions and controls which are often a means to send them back either soon or sometimes even after decades.
