Endrohr Apokalypse – solo exhibition at Kunstverein Ingolstadt.
Opening: 21 November 2025, 7 PM — with DJ Diskopeter
Venue: Kunstverein Ingolstadt, Galerie im Theater, Schlosslände 1, 85049 Ingolstadt
Exhibition period: 22 November 2025 – 18 January 2026
Within the brutalist architecture of the Stadttheater, the exhibition unfolds a scenario oscillating between sacrality and technical high-fidelity.
With site-specific works created especially for this setting, the exhibition explores the parallels between technology and theology.
The room’s seven supporting columns become carriers of a parallel shift between the Bamberg Apocalypse and the automotive city of Ingolstadt. seven tailpipes from the car tuning scene – from four-flow to duplex to Y-pipes – resound with the sounds of bodybuilders straining and lifting weights: a resonance chamber of strength, exhaustion, and faith in progress.
The works deal with technology as an effort to save effort. But they also refer to the efforts of the art and culture scene, which is reaching its limits in the face of budget cuts. As a result of the crisis in the automotive industry and reduced municipal funding, a cultural institution that was once a symbol of the city's spirit of upward momentum is coming to a standstill: after the exhibition, the Kunstverein's premises will remain closed until further notice.
The exhibition reflects on the self-inflicted consequences of modern hubris, the belief in progress, and the exhaustion of a society that produces its own revelations.
