The exhibition not only presents Buchholz’s experimental and innovative works of art, but also numerous hitherto completely unknown and unpublished documents as well as photographs and original manuscripts of his publications.

When applied to an artist’s studio as a space of creative production, these concepts are a way of contextualizing and understanding the process of art-making. In particular, the ideas which address public spaces, since a studio usually serves not only as a place for artistic production but also for public showings, discussions, tête-à-tête or collective gatherings. This also applies to the studio of Bernhard Heiliger, one of the most prominent artists of post-war Germany, who lived and worked in the East wing of what is today Kunsthaus Dahlem from 1949 until his death in 1995.
