UN1TY
How can the boundaries between artists and their audience, the portrayers and their subjects
be broken down? "UN1TY" is a multimedia group exhibition dedicated to the question of how
artistic processes can be democratized and de-hierarchized in the community. The exhibition
focuses on the art of portraiture - from studio photography, retouched and augmentedimagery, collage, moving image to AI-generated photography and live interaction for a fuller
artistic expression. As well as the representation of the self as home. Which environment do theportrayed subjects experience as their home? And what role does the urban space play in thequestion of belonging? In the course of a workshop, which is open to both the artists and thepublic, the exhibition works are developed and selected in a unity. Based on the structures ofDecentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAO), the curation will be guided by the work of allparticipants as well as their votes in an election process.

In the first part of the workshop on May 14 at B-Part Exhibition, a guided discussion between
the artists and the audience will explore the portrait as a creative genre, the use of new techalong with emerging questions of copyright and accessibility, and potential approaches tocreating democratic structures in art. In the second half of the workshop, all participants will
dedicate themselves to the practical creation of an AI portrait by using different working
methods. Through the application of tokens used in Decentralized Autonomous Organizations
both as currency and as a vote in electoral processes, all participants take initiative in curating
the artworks for the exhibition. In this way, not only are the traditional barriers between curator
and artist broken down, but the audience also gains deeper insights into the organization of anexhibition and can actively participate in it.
The exhibition opening on May 19 will present the multimedia portraits created in groupsessions of the artists as well as in the workshop together with the audience. Furthermore, theworks will be enhanced by live performance and interaction in space by the artists present andmade a multi-sensory experience. On the following day, the works will be exhibited as visualpieces only in the B-Part Exhibition.
UN1TY artists are: Aconite, Andreas Schimanski, Claire Saint Marc, Cloaking, Danny Muster,Kyoka, Lady Gaby, Noura Hafelia, Olcan Akçay, and Shoxxx.

The B-Part Exhibition space accompanies the future development of the Urbane Mitte Am
Gleisdreieck with artistic autonomy and thus at the same time enters into a dialogue with theoverarching themes of the overall project - forms of New Work, Co-working, Culture and Sport and creates synergies between artistic, cultural and social approaches. The artistic director of
the B-Part Exhibition is Rüdiger Lange (loop - raum für aktuelle kunst).
