Beginning in September 2014, the artist Mariana Castillo Deball (*1975 in Mexico City) - who was awarded the Preis der Nationalgalerie für Junge Kunst (National Gallery Prize for Young Art) in 2013 - will show a project especially developed for her solo exhibition in the historic hall at Hamburger Bahnhof

This large-scale installation will unite diverse artistic reflections that intersect historical research, philosophy and art; all of which are decisive for Mariana Castillo Deball's work. The artist appropriates specific subject areas for her own works and transfers the emergent research process, which is reminiscent to methods of archaeology, ethnography and the history of science, into a contemporary artistic use of visual forms. She sets that which has been forgotten into new contextual relationships in order to allow images to be both experienced and to create alternative readings.
