— Future Mobility And Other Ghosts From The Past. The Ship Edition

ⓧ FMAOGFTP. The Ship Edition

We cordially invite you to the exhibition “Future Mobility And Other Ghosts From The Past. The Ship Edition” by Sascia Reibel and Mathias Lempart curated by Christina Scheib!

Opening times: 16.08.–22.09.2024, open Fridays to Sundays 2:00–6:00 pm and on request, contact: dauerwelle@hfk-bremen.de

The exhibition takes us on a journey through time that examines the former promise of unrestricted global mobility. It looks back at the changing possibilities of travelling in recent decades. Various installations examine what travelling means in a world that is moving ever closer together and how we perceive it from a Western European perspective. In this context, the innovations in aviation, shipping and digital space give rise to the oppressive feeling that the constant acceleration can no longer be caught up with. On MS Dauerwelle (an inland waterway vessel), ‘Future Mobility’ encounters an exhibition venue that is itself in an ambiguous intermediate position between a past, repurposed means of transport and future potential.

The exhibition by Sascia Reibel and Mathias Lempart was created as part of the Peter Jacobi Design Scholarship in Pforzheim. Together they run the graphic design studio Shortnotice in Berlin and are lecturers in the Integrated Design programme at the HfK Bremen. The exhibition is activated and expanded by positions of the students Freddy Adelmann, Aleksandra Faradzheva, Sina Güllü Gießner and Lena Porath. Their works were created in the seminar "Waterways", which was led by Prof Olav Westphalen, Prof Tania Prill, Sascia Reibel and Mathias Lempart.

Information about the Maritime Woche can be found here and here.

Story ⇓

Berlin-based artist and graphic designer Mathias Lempart (b. 1990 in Poland) studied Communication Design at the Karlsruhe University of Arts and Design, with minors in Art Research and Product Design.

Lempart’s practice explores the relationship between applied design and contemporary art, focusing on conceptual and experimental approaches to visual communication. His work has been included in exhibitions at the Bauhaus Museum Dessau, Badischer Kunstverein, Museum of Humor and Satire in Bulgaria, and Nida Art Colony in Lithuania. He has participated in residencies in Lithuania, the Netherlands, and Germany.

From 2017 to 2018, he served as an elected federal representative of the Friedrich Ebert Foundation’s scholarship holders, where he coordinated university groups, organized a national conference, and undertook negotiation and moderation tasks.

Since 2020, he co-directs Shortnotice Studio with Sascia Reibel. The Berlin-based graphic design studio collaborates with institutions such as Kunsthalle Basel and Dinamo Typefaces, developing projects in the field of contemporary art and visual culture.

Lempart has received multiple awards in the competition 100 Beste Plakate Germany–Austria–Switzerland. In 2020 he was nominated for the German Design Award Newcomer, and in 2023, together with Sascia Reibel, he received the Peter Jacobi Foundation Stipend. He has taught at several universities in Germany, Switzerland, France and the UK, including the University of the Arts Bremen, Kunsthochschule Kassel, the University of Education Karlsruhe, and Pforzheim University. At Bremen, he co-led the Master Studio during Professor Tania Prill’s sabbatical, taking on both teaching and administrative responsibilities.

He is currently presenting the third edition of the exhibition series Future Mobility and Other Ghosts From The Past, developed with Sascia Reibel, at Hansabibliothek (hosted by GROTTO) in Berlin. The speculative exhibition follows earlier editions at Pforzheim Galerie (2024) and aboard the ship MS Dauerwelle in Bremen (2024). Alongside his artistic and design practice, Lempart currently holds a position as Production Coordinator for documenta 16.
