The catalogue Other People Think by MARTa Herford accompanies the first exhibition of works from entrepreneur Heiner Wemhöner’s private collection of contemporary art in his hometown. Curated by museum director Kathleen Rahn, the show presents a selection of around 70 works by 25 artists and highlights the dialogue between the works as well as between the artworks and the architecture of the museum, which was designed by Frank Gehry. Across different media, the show explores political statements, issues relating to the body and identity, and the power of gestural expression. In addition to general contextual explanations of the collection by the curator, an essay by Doris Krystof examines the film installation Once Again … (Statues Never Die) by artist Isaac Julien, using it to address questions around the treatment of African artefacts and colonial heritage, and shedding new light on the very nature of collecting.
