Think Before You Print

Think Before You Print, 2023

December 9, 2023 - January 26, 2024
Jahresausstellung 2023 at Galerie von Empfangshalle, Theresienstraße 154

The Galerie von Empfangshalle proudly presents "Think Before You Print" – a group exhibition collaboratively curated by
artists Paulina Nolte, Julia Klemm, and Kristina Schmidt.

At the heart of the gallery space stands a prominently staged and visibly striking large printer – a copying device. For "Think Before You Print," approximately 180 artists from Munich and around the world send digital images to the copier via the Empfangshalle's digital network. Artworks gradually flutter out of the printer slot in the form of A4 black-and-white copies, filling the room with a dynamic installation. A global artistic connection is formed, channeled through the printing network.

The sheets can be purchased on-site for one euro or more, with all proceeds benefiting the Bavarian Refugee Council. The curatorial team's recommendation is to generously donate and consider acquiring original works from the participating artists if possible. The unifying idea revolves around community, respect, and solidarity – admission is free, but not without value.
