Beschreibung
Volume 7.1 of Michael Müllers catalogue raisonné is the first volume highlighting the artists activity as a curator. It focuses on the exhibition series Deine Kunst at the Städtische Galerie Wolfsburg, which he curated from 2019-22. This series comprised a novel presentation of the collection, as well as being an artistic intervention. In 2019, Müller had been invited to make a personal selection from the Städtische Galeries collection and present the works to the public over the next few years. The artist and curator decided against staging a single exhibition; instead, he elected to present the collection in five successive versions and changing contexts, each focusing on different content and form. The individual versions were somewhat eccentric, and Müller staged them in a way extremely suggestive of an artwork - the curator even gradually transformed the exhibition spaces, down to the smallest detail.
