Fire. From the Cosmos to the Commons
21.6.–21.9.2026
For the new project space on Admiralitätstraße in Hamburg, Andrey Klassen is developing a large-scale installation that translates his drawing practice into the spatial realm. Starting from Plato’s allegory of the cave describing the path from illusion to truth, the work blurs the boundary between semblance and reality. By alluding to fire as a force that is both destructive and enlightening, the installation points to a present in which ecological crises and collective denial overlap. The exhibition challenges visitors to question their own perceptions: Which images do we accept as reality? And which insights have we ignored for too long?
The exhibition is part of the summer project Fire. From the Cosmos to the Commons by the City Curator Hamburg, with this year’s theme centring on the element of fire.
