The 8th Biennale of NON OBJECTIVE ARTS | EXPANDER – PART 2: Resonant Systems

Extending on the first exhibition, EXPANDER – PART 2: Resonant Systems operates as a responsive iteration, utilising the existing gallery space as both a site and strategy to carve out a new spatial installation. While the first exhibition remains in place, this presentation introduces new layers to the original context, adding to the evolving program at KULTX. It positions the gallery as a site of transition and renewal, where the ongoing exhibition becomes a framework for further experimentation. Rather than replacing the original, EXPANDER – PART 2 structurally adds to the pre-existing display, creating an expanded constellation of artworks, archives, and correspondences that explore Non-Objective Art. Bringing together new artists, custodial holdings, and archival materials related to the 8th Biennale of Non-Objective Art, bridging generational and conceptual perspectives.

In doing so, EXPANDER: PART 2 continues to test the limits of what both the biennale and exhibition can be. Through embracing mutability, reinforces the central proposition of the project: that abstraction and Non-Objective practices remain vital precisely because it resists narrative closure. The exhibition becomes a site of ongoing conversation – between local and international positions, between form and idea, between the historical and the yet to come.

EXPANDER – PART 2: Resonant Systems will also have an additional site work by Christoph Dahlhausen and additions from Mit Jai Inn, Lucio Auri, Arvid Boecker, Maks Dannecker, Siden Kong
