24 February 2022 | 20:00 Under the title “Digitisation of the Human Mind”, the Dresden cultural collective pampelmuse, i.e. philosopher Doreen Siegmund and theatre pedagogue Samuel Fink, will discuss the influence of digital media on our thoughts and actions together with graphic designer Nadja Barth, DJ and co-founder of the cultural association null7b Richard Gruhle and IT expert Nico Buntspecht.

05 February 2023  / 20:00   “Children playing with a bomb.” This is how the Swedish philosopher Nick Bostrom described us, today’s humanity, not only developing artificial intelligence (AI) but indulging in it almost without restraint, unaware of the consequences. The image is by no means new; it runs through cultural history from the Golem of early medieval Jewish mysticism to Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein to the HAL 9000 on-board computer running amok in Stanley Kubrick’s film “2001: A Space Odyssey”. While some put this mask of horror on digitalisation, art in virtual space is really flourishing. Reflecting on the infinite possibilities that arise thanks to the computer was the central theme of the Digital Art Residencies initiated by the Jugend und Kulturprojekt e.V..   Over a period of three months, local and international artists used digital collaboration software to create works on the theme METAMORPHOSIS OF THE MIND. The focus was on the creative adaptation of digital technologies. The resulting works show art as something that is created between several individuals and digital networks through complex interactions: a fusion.   Participating artists: Mia-Ann Böhm (Germany), Augusto Gerardi Rousset (Venezuela), Jakyeong Jeong (South Korea/Germany) Belal Kalash (Israel), Oleksandra Kulikovska (Ukraine), Anna Mukhanova (Ukraine), Laura Michelle Schubert (Germany), Michael Siegmund (Germany)

Support your Ukrainian Neighbours 09 October 2022 – 31 October 2022Vernissage |09 October 2022 | 20:00 While Russian missiles militarily attack Ukrainian cities, killing thousands of civilians and destroying homes, art and culture also fall victim to the war. Most museums and galleries in Ukraine were closed after the Russian invasion, including the Kandinsky Art Center in Odessa (www.kandinskiy-art.com), whose art collection chronologically dates back to the beginning of the twentieth century and continues to this day. The renowned gallery owner and director of the Kandinsky Art Center in Odessa, Dr. Anna Glazova, has been bringing exhibits from the gallery to Dresden piece by piece since June of this year in order to protect them from Russian access in Odessa. For her, the evacuation of the cultural values and the rescue of the entire art collection are of particular importance.As part of the SUPPORT YOUR UKRAINIAN NEIGHBOURS project, the JKPeV will present a selection of artworks from the Kandinsky Art Center at the Full Moon Gallery from 9 to 31 October for the ART@EXILE exhibition, together with artworks by Ukrainian refugee artists living in Dresden. The vernissage will take place on 9 October at 20:00 in the Full Moon Gallery. Afterwards, the JKPeV will safely store the artworks of the Kandinsky Art Center in Dresden for the future.

10 September 2022 – 07 October 2022Vernissage |10 September 2022 | 20:00 In her works, Karolin Kutteri makes art a means of action in the discourse between sustainability, environmental ethics and climate justice. In the fields of painting and performance art, the artist provides a deep insight into spherical intermediate worlds. Elements from botany, anatomy and fractal patterns grow into each other as a symbiosis, and alongside neo-futuristic icon paintings struggle in romanticized, irreversibly transformed landscapes.

12 August 2022 – 08 September 2022Vernissage | 12 August 2022 | 20:00 From 12 August to 8 September, Full Moon Gallery presents the new exhibition by Dresden artist Andreas Dörfel entitled TRACES. The trained architect already completed additional studies in architecture-related art at the HfBK Dresden in the 1980s.

13 July 2022 – 11 August 2022Vernissage | 13 July 2022 | 20:00 The Dresden artist Anja-Alexandra Kaufhold created in the last two years detailed nature studies and visited, among other things, Saxon Switzerland, the Dresden Heath, the banks of the Elbe, as well as the Prince Pückler Park to escape the restrictions in the wake of the Corona Pandemic. In the process, numerous works were created, whose focus is primarily on the representation of various trees and forests. The artist is particularly influenced by a spiritual approach to nature. At the exhibition opening on 13 July in the Full Moon Gallery, the renowned Dresden artist Oskar Staudinger will speak and introduce the artist Anja-Alexandra Kaufhold and the topic of her exhibition. The vernissage will also be musically accompanied by the Dresden duo LunaLee, who combine diverse musical influences in a refreshing way. The duo’s playful, light improvisations with folk and blues influences will be underlaid with profound German lyrics full of everyday poetry.
