<p>For her exhibition <i>room in room in room</i> at Kunsthaus Langenthal, Valentina Stieger has invited three colleagues who have already collaborated in various constellations: Jessica Pooch, Lena Reiser, and Nora Rekade. These four artists interrelate their works and explore what they have in common, taking as their point of departure their interest in the design of the everyday, the artificiality of pop, prefabricated material, and temporary architecture. </p> <p>Together, they developed an intervention in the historic spaces of the Kunsthaus. Built from 1790 to 1809 as a department store, it served from the end of the 19th century as the town hall, until it became the Kunsthaus in 1992. The frequently panelled walls of the building, which is listed as a historic monument, where partially covered with simple installations to make them more suitable for their new function of exhibiting art. The result were spaces within spaces, or indeed rooms within rooms. The Artists take this one step further by creating spaces within the spaces within the spaces, which play with the floor plan, and in so doing rupture and transcend it. </p>
