When Sound Becomes Art Observation: Alexander Tillegreen at the Kunsthalle Mannheim
The exhibition Pieces for Works brings the site-sensitive sound installations and musical works of the Danish artist and composer Alexander Brix Tillegreen to the Kunsthalle Mannheim. Between painting, sculpture, works on paper, and sound unfolds an exhibition experience that makes the museum's collection newly audible and sharpens perception. The exhibition can be seen from April 2, 2026 to January 10, 2027 and connects contemporary art with art-historical depth.

Sound as an Artistic Method
Tillegreen, born in 1991 in Taarbæk, works between Copenhagen and Berlin. His practice operates at the intersection of visual art and composition. Kunsthalle Mannheim describes the project as a series of newly commissioned, site-sensitive sound installations that are conceived autonomously while coexisting with works from the collection. The artist develops ten sound works as compositional responses to selected works from the museum. ([kuma.art](https://kuma.art/de/ausstellungen/alexander-tillegreen?utm_source=openai))
A Dialogue with the Collection
Particularly appealing is the art-historical intertwining: Tillegreen refers to works by Auguste Rodin, Rosemarie Trockel, László Moholy-Nagy, Anna Mahler, Francis Bacon, Edvard Munch, Isa Genzken, Édouard Vuillard, and Louise Nevelson. This creates not a linear retelling but an open structure of resonances, echo effects, and shifts in meaning. The exhibition invites slow contemplation of the works and makes audible how much space, material, and light shape the aesthetic experience.

Curating, Spatial Impact, and Mediation
Kunsthalle Mannheim itself is a museum with a strong collection tradition and a clear focus on mediation. The institution regularly offers tours, thematic formats, and educational programs for visitors; it also refers to digital formats such as the KuMa App and the Digital Classroom. Thus, Tillegreen's exhibition fits into an environment that convincingly brings together artistic experience, cultural education, and contemporary art.

Conclusion
Pieces for Works is an exhibition for everyone who wants to experience art not only visually but also spatially. Anyone wishing to experience sound, collection, and contemporary art in a precisely curated exhibition atmosphere should visit this stop in Mannheim live.
