„Musik Installationen“ Nuremberg
Upcoming commission in production – two site-specific works in Nuremberg, Germany. From May 23 to June 1, 2025.
At the invitation of curator Marie-Therese Bruglacher, Anke Eckardt’s project explores the possibilities of communication and interaction between different species from a multidisciplinary perspective. The project comprises two chapters: the first at the Dutzendteich, one-off and performative, the second installative, in an inside location over the festival period.
Ground, Wall, Verticality
2008–2014. A trilogy on imaginary architectures. The accompanying artist’s book ‘SONIC SPACES’ (2013) was published by Revolver Verlag, Berlin.
Within the framework of this trilogy, Anke realized a series of multimedia installations including various versions of ‘GROUND’ (2013/14), ‘BETWEEN | YOU | AND | ME’ (2011/2012) and ‘!’ & ‘! MULTICHANNEL’ (2008-2010). The works are based on an examination of power relations and the politics of materiality; aesthetically, they each develop their own poetics of space.

Teaching & Research
