In the autumn of 2018, the Kunsthal Rotterdam will cover the complete range of kinetic (moving) art in the exhibition Action <-> Reaction. It will feature work by the most famous kinetic artists in the world. This impressive retrospective will offer Kunsthal visitors an opportunity to experience art that appeals to all the senses. Feel, watch, smell, hear and experience the rhythms, flashes, vibrations, instabilities and force fields right up to the cosmos! The exhibition is a revival of the successful 2013 Paris exhibition \u2018Dynamo\u2019 and is realised in close collaboration with the Grand Palais in Paris.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The Kunsthal Rotterdam exhibition ‘Action <-> Reaction. 100 Years of Kinetic Art’ presents an impressive historical overview of kinetic art, the abstract art movement from the twentieth century focusing on light and movement.\u00a0Around eighty works of the most famous artists who made important contributions to the development of kinetic art can be admired.\u00a0From pioneers such as Marcel Duchamp, Alexander Calder and Victor Vasarely, to established names such as Julio Le Parc, Gerhard von Graevenitz, Christian Megert, Bridget Riley, Yayoi Kusama, Jan van Munster and Dan Flavin as well as representatives from younger generations such as Jeppe Hein, \u017dilvinas Kempinas and Philippe Decrauzat. Also shown is work by Heinz Mack, Otto Piene and G\u00fcnther Uecker of the German avant-garde group Zero.<\/p>\n

In 2018, over a century after the birth of this art movement, and in close collaboration with the R\u00e9union des mus\u00e9es nationaux \u2013 Grand Palais, Paris, the Kunsthal Rotterdam is proud to present \u2018Action <-> Reaction\u2019 in the Netherlands, a prestigious retrospective exhibition, placing the kinetic art of yesterday in the context of the performative arts of today.<\/p>\n

The exhibition is subdivided into twelve themes covering different aspects of perception and phenomenal experience, such as light, movement, rhythm, structure, vibration, space, radiance, immateriality and rotation. All artworks appeal to various senses and, as a result of interacting with the viewer, can lead to extraordinary perceptions. Feel, see, hear and experience the rhythms, vibrations, spinning and force fields: Action <-> Reaction!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Highlights<\/h3>\n
\n

The exhibition \u2018Action <-> Reaction’ features many hallucinatory artworks. The monumental work \u2018Mechanisches Ballett\u2019 by Heinz Mack from 1963 that previously only existed as a model, will be constructed for the first time and have its world premiere in Rotterdam. Part of this work that contains references to Fernand L\u00e9ger and\u00a0Oskar Schlemmer, is a light and sound show with music by the composer Gy\u00f6rgy Ligeti. The 1964\/65 work \u2018Blaues Segel\u2019 by the German artist Hans Haacke, consisting of a bleu piece of fabric across which a ventilator causes continuous undulating movements, is of a great sculptural and abstract beauty. The artificial light spaces in the work \u2018Chromosaturation\u2019 from 1965 by Carlos Cruz-Diez immerse the viewer in an environment that consists of only three colours and enables our eyes \u2013 used to perceiving a broad range of colours \u2013 to transform the idea of colour to an almost physical experience. <\/span><\/p>\n

The sensory installation \u2018Penetrable\u2019 by the Latin-American artist Jes\u00fas Rafael Soto invites the viewer to become one with the artwork. This playful work consists of a closed curtain made from thousands of little yellow plastic threads \u2013 of which the shape is continually changing as a result of human contact \u2013 into which the visitors can disappear.<\/span><\/p>\n

The artworks in the exhibition, including a number of monumental installations (environments), originate from famous collections of various museums in Europe and are brought together by the renowned French guest curator Serge Lemoine (former Pr\u00e9sident of Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Orsay, Paris, and Professor emeritus at Sorbonne University, Paris) and Marianne Le Pommer\u00e9 (Historian of Art)<\/span><\/p>\n

This exhibition is realised in close collaboration with the R\u00e9union des mus\u00e9es nationaux – Grand Palais, Paris.
