Reality check: wild cube and ground control

More about the book

REALITY CHECK: WILD CUBE AND GROUND CONTROL features Lois Weinberger, a trailblazer influencing art's engagement with nature since the late 1980s. His work focuses on spontaneous ruderal vegetation, reflecting on nature and civilization. Weinberger's metaphor for contemporary migration challenges arbitrary borders and hierarchies, presenting a radical counter-concept to capitalist exploitation. The accompanying publication includes texts by Christin Lahr and Isabelle Meiffert, alongside a conversation with Weinberger, Heath Bunting, Ladislav Zajac, and Wolfgang Schröder. The curatorial experiment, KONJUNKTIONEN, expands on Weinberger’s complex oeuvre through the artistic lenses of Bunting, whose provocative interventions question hierarchies, and Zajac, who explores the formal aspects of space, time, and perception. This multifaceted approach invites a deeper discourse on the intersections of art, nature, and societal structures.
