Zeitgenössische Intervention im Rahmen der Dada-Ausstellung

Zur Ausstellung „Sperren Sie endlich Ihren Kopf auf!“ Dada als politische Kunst zwischen den Weltkriegen zeigen wir Simon Wachsmuths Videoarbeit From Heaven High [Vom Himmel hoch], 2025 als zeitgenössische Intervention in unserer Literatursammlung.

„Um dieses Kunstwerk vollkommen zu verstehen, exerziere man täglich zwölf Stunden mit vollgepacktem Affen und feldmarschmäßig ausgerüstet auf dem Tempelhofer Feld“ -- Tafel zu John Heartfield und Rudolf Schlichter, Preußischer Erzengel (1920), Deckenplastik (verschollen).  

Eine moderne Rekonstruktion des Preußischen Erzengels hängt vom 9. Mai bis 13. September 2026 in der Ausstellung „Sperren Sie endlich Ihren Kopf auf!“.  

Simon Wachsmuth ist am Sonntag, 5. Juli 2026 um 15 Uhr zu einem Künstlergespräch mit Prof. Dr. Christian Berger zu Gast.

Videoarbeit, 30 Min., Farbe/Schwarzweiss, Ton

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
