BBKarium Hall


BBKarium logo in red and white

The BBKarium is an exhibition format of the Berufsverband Bildender Künstler Sachsen-Anhalt e.V.. Since April 2021, artists from the association have been exhibited in the shop window of the office on a monthly basis. The exhibitions are curated by one or two members of the association each year. They make a selection of artists for the following year. The exhibitions can be viewed around the clock! From April 2024, exhibitions will only be presented on a bi-monthly basis. Since November 2023, a BBKarium has also been established in Dessau, which aims to show works by artists from the association on a monthly basis, following the example of the Halle showcase.

The BBK Saxony-Anhalt represents the interests of around 350 professional artists from various areas of the visual arts. What they all have in common is that they not only want to make their art, but also show it: Artistic work also involves a dialog between the resulting work and an audience.

The BBKarium Halle is located at Große Klausstraße 6 in 06108 Halle (Saale).

The series is supported by the state of Saxony-Anhalt and the city of Halle (Saale).

Friedrich Hensen

Friedrich Hensen works intermedially. He works in social, artistic and non-material spaces, which he summarizes with the socio-philosophical term “traversing the spheres”. This results in site-specific installations, performances and multimedia works consisting of texts, sounds and poetry or socio-cultural projects, such as the Bürgertheater Zeitz. Friedrich Hensen:

Visually guided to the day before ‘becoming conscious’, we see wild creatures. a nature untouched by man with clear air, unsealed landscapes and waters without plastic particles. This place of idyllic thoughts harbors carefully guarded hopes like seeds that have become rare. The work is on display: “I/II There used to be a paradise (with […]

Katharina Stark

The “Sunset” group of works tells of the loss of lightness, of contaminated paradises and unsuccessful displacement. Destruction is immanent in the newly created – decay permeates the material. Kitschy elements are reminiscent of untroubled dreams of times gone by.

Katharina Günther

For me as a sculptor, the body/body as an emotional, physical and metaphysical space of experience is a central theme. How do we experience our body? Our skin provides us with protection, demarcation and at the same time an exchange with our surroundings. We are touchable and vulnerable. I work with wax. The material has […]

Ingrid Müller-Kuberski

Coming from textiles, I have tried out many different materials and techniques over the years. At the moment there are often photographs at the beginning of a work, which – processed on the computer and printed on aluminum dibond – in the end bear no resemblance to the original motif, especially in terms of content. […]

Diana Höding

The main theme and artistic approach of my work is the ambivalence of life in the field of tension of our contradictory world. In my works of painting and object art, I try to capture today’s complex, fast-moving world of unmanageable scraps of information. Mixed media techniques come very close to this perception. They combine […]

Grit Berkner

People are at the center of my work. I am particularly interested in the portrait. The smaller details that can change a lot are particularly important to me, such as the tilt of the head, the alignment of the eyes or a certain incidence of light. However, the large form as a whole must not […]

Shavuot is the Zionist-Jewish harvest festival. Both festivals have similar symbols and traditions, including the wheat and circle symbols. Pictures: Above: Harvest festival in Kaisitz, probably. 1929. Below: Shavuot, Alonim, Israel 1946. The pewter figures are part of a new series. Instead of world war soldiers, they depict people who are apparently working the land. […]

Jenny Rempel

The starting point of the work was the bride of the writer Novalis, Sophie von Kühn. The young child bride and the drama of her early death had a decisive influence on Novalis’ life and work. The unequal connection that Novalis entered into with her seemed to him like a reunion, a complete transformation of […]

Helga Borisch

A not quite so funny – but real – “summer night’s dream”. The underlying watercolor is in the collection for “Humor and Satire” (Gabrovo / Bulgaria). Borisch’s drawings and watercolors are often created without a plan – intuitively with subliminal impressions of the day. This version of the picture was repeated in the large painting. […]

Ina Jaenicke

“blue man ” and “Valid/a” were created in 2020 during the “Terra Arte” ceramics symposium at the Hundisburg technical brickworks (Börde). The attraction for me was the challenge of working in large format with the red brick clay available there, as I usually work with porcelain in a small, medium format. Even in the large […]

Zhana Veselinova Nedelcheva

Nature with its countless color nuances and shapes inspires me in my art. My sculptures often consist of solid and strong forms. I work boldly with glazes, applying them in different layers to achieve unforeseen results. The firing temperature also creates new surprises in my works. This element of surprise is a driving force in […]

Undine J. E. Hannemann

Undine J. E. Hannemann lives and works in the north of Halle (Saale). The region is known for its porphyry landscape. The nature reserve and the animals that live there are an inspiration for the painter. Through her closeness to nature, the artist has developed a deep fascination for the behavior and habits of the […]

Daniel Priese

Drawing on paper or shaping stones by removing material are both final, non-reversible processes. Every stroke, every blow remains a part of the final appearance. This is what makes them honest and so they become direct statements.

Carola Helbing-Erben

That all sounds good. The color is vibration and the rhythm of the surfaces. My heartbeat and pulse when I paint are vibrations. There is a bundling towards the center that is wide and open like the sky, like a hope Further information about the artist: http://carola-helbing-erben.de/ Carola Helbing-Erben:“Requiem” or “The Greater Hope”, acrylic painting, […]

Jörg Riemke

In my artistic work, I concentrate on a single simple theme: the woman – in painting, in marble and also in bronze.

My woodcuts are three-dimensional objects and prints at the same time. In the notch section, I first limit the large shapes. Worked with a chisel and mallet, the surface of the wooden stick becomes a relief. Only a few prints are made on Japanese paper with colorful, painterly rolling. The ink remains on the printing […]

Bringing something to light from unknown depths… There are hypothetical species from an immeasurable habitat – which forms the basis of our own human existence. Possible mutations of living creatures as a result of our environmental impact, environmental pollution – which astonish, alienate, worry and threaten us? By-catch.

Nikos Probst

Nikos Probst’s artistic work and research focuses on the reflection and examination of an increasingly technologically diversifying and automating world. In his work “TRAINED SCULPTOR”, he explores the influence of artificial intelligence in sculptural form-finding processes. To do this, he used a so-called Generative Adversarial Network, or GAN for short. He trained this with 3D […]
