A tour through Fluxus, sound, and walkable art

The tour to Yuko Mohri & Ei Arakawa-Nash – How We Meet at the Kunstmuseum Bochum opens a precise view of an exhibition conceived as a large walkable installation, drawing from the museum's Fluxus collection as well as new works by the two artists. The event combines artwork observation, art historical classification, and aesthetic experience in a space where material, movement, sound, and sculpture intertwine.

Fluxus as a starting point for an open art form

Yuko Mohri and Ei Arakawa-Nash connect to experimental art movements of the 1960s, where the idea was placed above the autonomous individual artwork. This approach especially shapes the exhibition: simple means, performative settings, and a parcours that not only invites the audience to observe but also includes them spatially. The reference to Fluxus artists such as Alison Knowles, Daniel Spoerri, Wolf Vostell, Mauricio Kagel, and Geoffrey Hendricks clearly anchors the show in art history.

Yuko Mohri: Water, leaks, and sound as poetic systems

At the center of Yuko Mohri's work is the transformation of everyday processes into sculptural and acoustic events. The Kunstmuseum Bochum showcases her installation Moré Moré (Leaky Tokyo) in a specially adapted version; Mohri's kinetic sound sculptures arise from water leaks, technical interventions, and the cycle of control and backflow. Thus, the art experience becomes both sensual and intellectually dense.

Ei Arakawa-Nash: Performance, LED paintings, and critique of the present

Ei Arakawa-Nash works performatively, involving everyday objects, artworks, and people as equal actors. In Bochum, he presents, among other things, LED paintings and new productions that reflect systems such as money, art market, CO2 footprint, and labor value. His practice combines installation, performance, and music into an open, lively form of contemporary art.
