After the Dadaist Hannah Höch had turned away from photomontage from the 1930s onwards due to its appropriation by the National Socialists, she began to create an increasing number of nature motifs in watercolour and oil. Her landscape and floral paintings differ distinctly from her earlier cacophonous photomontages and bear witness to a shift towards a ‘phyto-centred’ approach. Engaging with various theorists in the field of Critical Plant Studies, I propose a ‘greening’ [Begrünung] of Höch’s critical approach and discuss how Höch’s relationship with plants served as a powerful creative source and a means of survival for her during the war and beyond.

Christy Wahl completed her PhD in art history with a thesis on Hannah Höch. She is currently a research trainee at the Museum Reinickendorf.

Haus am Waldsee is celebrating its 80th anniversary this year. On Family Sunday, we visit the exhibition Wo ich wohne (Where I live) and explore how artists have engaged with the history of the house. For inspiration we will pay special attention to the ceramic works by Nigin Beck. Afterwards, you can set off to explore the garden and look closely: What traces, textures and patterns can you spot? What makes this place special? Using modelling clay, you can make imprints of the shapes you’ve discovered and create your own sculptures, plates, or bowls, which you can then paint and varnish in bright colours.

Max. 20 people. Ages 4 and up, accompanied by parents.

*Free ticket for children under 18. The ticket includes admission to the exhibition.
Booking information: A maximum of 2 tickets for adults and 4 tickets for children can be booked per transaction. For larger groups, we kindly ask you to make multiple bookings.

Facilitated by: Luise Bichler

“A stutter… can be a musical instrument,” says JJJJJerome Ellis, a composer, producer, multi-instrumentalist, and author from Norfolk, Virginia. Ellis speaks with a glottal block stutter, which manifests as involuntary pauses in speech. In his artistic practice, this interruption becomes compositional material: Pauses, repetitions, and extended silences fracture linearity, reorder time, and open space for a more patient, attentive form of listening.
 
Working across performance, sound, text, and improvisation, Ellis draws on free jazz, contemporary composition, musique concrète, gospel, and environmental music. Saxophone, organ, dulcimer, electronics, and voice converge in an ongoing exploration of Blackness, stuttering speech, time, and the natural world.
 
For Haus am Waldsee, Ellis is developing a musical performance that moves between the garden and the interior spaces of the house. The plants, textures, and acoustic conditions of the site are woven into an open composition shaped by the interplay of sound and silence, presence and interruption.
