Lothringer 13 Halle

Lothringer 13 Halle Ausstellungshalle für internationale Gegenwartskunst Die Lothringer 13 Halle gehört zu den den Kunsträumen der Stadt München.

Seit 1980 befindet sich die Halle für zeitgenössische Kunst in den Räumen eines ehemals industriell genutzten Areals in der Lothringer Straße 13 im Stadtteil Haidhausen. Auf einer Ausstellungsfläche von 700 qm werden von wechselnden Kurator*innen Ausstellungen und Projekte mit lokalen sowie internationalen Künstler*innen realisiert. Seit 2020 wird die Lothringer 13 Halle von Lisa Britzger und Luzi

Gross in Zusammenarbeit mit Anna Lena von Helldorff kuratiert. Ihr Programm ab Juni 2020 setzt Schwerpunkte auf kollaborative, kontextspezifische und transdisziplinäre Positionen. Künstlerische Praxis, ihre Vermittlung und Reflexion sollen als Impuls für die gemeinschaftliche Aushandlung von Gegenwart wirken.

On Saturday evening, 13 June at 19:00, interdisciplinary sound artist and designer .khrychev contributes to the sixth edition of the ATMO series at Lothringer 13 Halle, which focuses on experimental listening.

He joins in discovering sounds that are aesthetically compelling, meaningful, and—ideally—also new. To listeners, this sounds extremely promising; for a sound designer like him, it’s obvious: sound can convey information, provide orientation, and be used strategically. For Khrychev, content is always crucial. Companies like Hyundai, for whom he works today, clearly appreciate this as well.

The path to this point was not a straight one. Khrychev began his career in international sound design after fleeing Russia, accompanied, as he recounts, by music such as that of The Doors. Perhaps he always knew that when doors close, they should at least sound good.

Am Samstagabend, den 13. Juni, um 19:00 Uhr beteiligt sich der interdisziplinäre Klangkünstler und Designer Maksim Khrychev an der sechsten Ausgabe der Reihe ATMO in der Lothringer 13 Halle, die sich dem experimentellen Hören widmet.

Gemeinsam mit dem Positionen Magazin begibt er sich auf die Suche nach Klängen, die ästhetisch überzeugen, Bedeutung tragen und – im Idealfall – auch neu sind. Für Zuhörer:innen klingt das äußerst vielversprechend, für einen Sounddesigner wie ihn ist es naheliegend: Sound kann Informationen vermitteln, Orientierung schaffen und gezielt eingesetzt werden. Entscheidend ist für Khrychev dabei stets auch der Inhalt. Das wissen offenbar auch Unternehmen wie Hyundai zu schätzen, für die er heute unter anderem arbeitet.

Der Weg dorthin verlief nicht geradlinig. Seine Arbeit im internationalen Sounddesign begann Khrychev nach seiner Flucht aus Russland – begleitet, wie er erzählt, auch von Musik wie der von The Doors. Vielleicht hat er immer gewusst, dass, wenn sich einem Türen verschließen, sie dabei wenigstens gut klingen sollten.

Juriš (“Charge”) (1947), paradigmatic of Socialist Realism in Bosnian-Herzegovinian art, depicts faceless German soldiers battling partisan fighters, in which the artist was a participant since 1941. Demonstrating the coexistence of artistic and antifascist practice, Ismet Mujezinović (1907–1984) was also among the founders of the Secondary School of Applied Arts in Sarajevo, the Association of Artists of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and the International Portrait Gallery in Tuzla. In Juriš, Mujezinović depicts a dramatic historical moment of a partisan charge, with the focus of the scene directed toward a centrally positioned red flag. As a symbol of social and political revolution, around which the pyramidal-composed figures are organized, Juriš references the painting Liberty Leading the People (1830) by the French artist Eugène Delacroix. Mujezinović – who spent part of his artistic training in Paris – reinterprets this well-known work about the French Revolution within the Yugoslav partisan context. Instead of Marianne, the personification of liberty in Delacroix’s work, the peak of the composition in Juriš is dominated by the flag, which becomes the “central figure”, embodying the collective struggle and the ideals of the emerging social order. In contrast to Delacroix, Mujezinović does not highlight individual figures; instead the painting frames the people as the driving force of historical transformation.

Im Eingangsbereich der Lothringer 13 Halle entsteht ein neuer Ort: Breeding Corner.
Kein Rückzugsort, sondern ein Ort zum Brüten über zeitaktuelle Ideen und Konzepte.

Neben den erhältlichen Publikationen in unserem Wolke Verlag-Bookstore entsteht hier eine wachsende Auswahl an Publikationen, die nicht verkauft werden, sondern vor Ort als Bibliothek zugänglich sind. 

Die zur Verfügung gestellten Materialien sind nicht nur Dokumente, sondern Werkzeuge: Sie erweitern den Raum um Strategien progressiver Kulturarbeit. Die Auswahl wird um seltene, schwer zugängliche oder aktuell relevante Publikationenn fortlaufend ergänzt und entwickelt sich mit dem Programm und in Reaktion auf die Gegenwart.

Den Auftakt macht das Artist Book CONCEPTS von Henrike Naumann: ein Ordner aus spiegelpoliertem Edelstahl mit rund 100 Konzeptpapieren – Recherchen, Skizzen, Entwürfe, Materialproben. Zusammen mit weiteren Publikationen der Künstlerin gibt er Einblick in Arbeitsweisen, die sich klar gegen faschistische Kontinuitäten richten.

Die Präsentation erfolgt im Gedenken an Henrike Naumann und ihr unermüdliches Wirken.



At the entrance of Lothringer 13 Halle, a new spot is emerging: Breeding Corner.
Not a retreat, but a site for incubation of current ideas and concepts.

Alongside the publications available in our Wolke Verlag book store, a growing selection of materials is being established—publications that are not for sale but accessible on site as a library.
The materials provided are not just documents, but tools: they extend the space through strategies of progressive cultural practice. The selection is continuously expanded to include rare, hard-to-access, or currently relevant publications, evolving with the programme and in response to the present.

The starting point is the artist book CONCEPTS by Henrike Naumann: a mirror-polished stainless steel folder containing around 100 concept papers—research, sketches, drafts, and material samples. Together with further publications by the artist, it offers insight into working methods that clearly oppose fascist continuities.

The presentation also takes place in memory of Henrike Naumann and her tireless engagement.

In addition to a temporary library, the space features a video by Kay Matter, a series of small, tactile bronze sculptures by Mira Mann, and an ongoing artistic intervention by Serena Ferrario.

The evening programme begins at 19:30 with the performance “Visual Vibrations” by Rosalie Wanka and Kassandra Wedel, followed by a performative keynote by London-based artist Dan Daw and “Spiritus”, a performance by Olivia Rivière & Lisen Pousette. The evening concludes with the Munich Community Orchestra, led by Wolfi Schlick & Marja Burchard. Bringing together musicians from Kulturzentrum Köşk and Kulturzentrum Luise, the orchestra invites the audience to participate. Participants may bring their own instruments, use those available on site, or join with their voices and bodies.

Assembly Space (2026)

Commissioned by Lothringer 13 Halle with the generous support of – special thanks to Michael Buhrs and Patrick Matthews.

At the heart of the initial chapter of Antifascism: Now. lies the assembly: a dynamic scenography and architecture that places all events and evolving developments at its centre.
The assembly will reappear in an adapted form in all future chapters of the project.

The spatial and scenographic conception of the assembly space was developed in collaboration between the artists Gülbin Ünlü and Benedikt Gahl and the architectural practice ansa studios. At its conceptual and spatial core lies the Plenum, conceived as a circular, dynamic space of action that functions as a connective centre. It establishes lines of sight, pathways, and projection surfaces while remaining highly adaptable—shifting from an open stage for performances to a setting for workshops, lectures, and discussions. Through these architectural strategies, ansa studios create a flexible framework that blurs boundaries between inside and outside, audience and participants, fostering a collective environment of engagement and exchange.

Around this structure, the modular textile elements by Ünlü and Gahl define anti-fascism as a psychosocial and socio-political practice rooted in self-reflection. From a condensed motif, a layered visual language unfolds, spanning historical references, activism, and contemporary forms of resistance. Transparent, coloured, and reflective materials integrate visitors physically and conceptually, positioning anti-fascism as an open, ongoing, and collective practice.

PROGRAM ANNOUNCEMENT – TOUCH ME I’M SICK

Touch me I’m sick starts on May 2, 2026 at Lothringer 13 Halle. Over the course of a month, the program explores the relationship between illness, disability, and artistic practice. Initiated and curated by Mira Mann, it‘s conceived as a discursive space for people with and without disabilities, and as an independent position within the ongoing main exhibition “Antifascism: Now.”

Workshops, performances, concerts, and artistic contributions foreground creative expression as a universal language. In collaboration with organisations, self-help groups, and artists with disabilities, a diverse programme has been developed that reflects on the relationship between physical and mental conditions and artistic practice. Crip to crip.

“With Ribbons and Flags” (2022–2024) is the final project by Davyd Chychkan, created between 2022 and 2024 before he volunteered for the frontline. The graphic series portrays participants of anarchist and anti-authoritarian left movements who are fighting in the war or have died defending Ukraine. Chychkan, known for politically engaged art, sought to highlight the ideological diversity of those defending Ukraine and contrast it with the imperial-fascist ideology he attributes to Russian forces. The works present collective portraits of soldiers based on social media images or materials provided to the artist. Individuals from different units are depicted together, evoking the atmosphere of leftist gatherings in Ukraine before the full-scale invasion. The series also references historical movements such as the Ukrainian People’s Republic and the Huliaipole Republic. A recurring figure is Nestor Makhno, now an icon of resistance to Russian imperialism. Stylistically inspired by early political posters, the works feature colored ribbons and flags: blue and yellow for Ukraine, black for anarchism, purple for feminism, and red for anti-authoritarian socialism. The flowing ribbons connect the series to Chychkan’s earlier project “Ribbons and Triangles” (2022). Dedicated to anti-authoritarian groups and leftist fighters, the series was exhibited in several Ukrainian cities, expanding over time. Chychkan was later killed by Russian forces and died of his wounds on August 10, 2025.

Davyd Chychkan was a defining voice in Ukraine’s anti-fascist movement—an anarchist, artist, and activist who devoted his life to justice, freedom, and solidarity until the end.
