HENRIKE NAUMANN: THE HOME FRONT

Aula Baratto Ca’ Foscari Dorsoduro 3246 Venice

A Closing Event of the German Pavilion 2026 at the 61st Biennale di Venezia

Curated by:
Matteo Bertelé
Kathleen Reinhardt

In February 2026, the artist Henrike Naumann passed away just a few months before her work The Home Front opened in the German Pavilion at the Venice Biennale.
For this closing event, Matteo Bertelé (art historian), Kathleen Reinhardt (curator), Vasyl Cherepanyn (curator), Juliane Rebentisch (philosopher), and Clemens Villinger (historian) discuss the life and work of Henrike Naumann. Together, they will commemorate an artist who explored the politics and aesthetics of everyday life and examine the themes, conceptual frameworks, and working methods that shaped her work. At the same time, the discussion will focus on how her artistic practice points toward the future. Institutional greetings by Silvia Burini, Director of the CSAR Centre for Studies in Russian, Central Asian and Caucasian Art.

Henrike Naumann’s performance TRÜMMERFRAU will be staged inside the German Pavilion for the very last time on November 20, 21 and 22 at 1 and 4 pm, with Il Posto Danza Verticale, choreography by Wanda Moretti.
