Cactus Craze
Curated by Jean-Michel Wicker in collaboration with Gregorio Magnani.
Artist: Judith Hopf
With books and works by Emanuel Rossetti, Simon Popper, Sara MacKillop, Janice Kerbel, Karl Holmqvist / Ei Arakawa.

In October 2010, KW Institute for Contemporary Art launched a new exhibition series in the front building, entitled KW69. This series provides a space for dialogue for artists, a kind of experimental stage that for one year will be the home to a number of artistic projects in quick succession. Moving on from one project to the next, the participants will shift roles, as the artists exhibiting then invite the next project. This dynamic interplay will enable unconventional points of reference, continuous shifts in perspective, and uses of the exhibition space that refer to and build on one another.
The series began with 'Molecular Etwas' by Angela Bulloch, followed by 'cactus craze'; Judith Hopf will curate the next installment.
