/pljesak/ von Cosmo Großbach @cosmoooli , 2025 ⭐️ Partizan★ke Art Ausstellung @hgbgallery 2025 @hgbleipzig ⭐️ „Im März 2025 verbrachte Cosmo Großbach für die Ausstellung vier Tage in Belgrad. Er arbeitete im Archiv Jugoslawiens und im Museum Jugoslawiens und besuchte wichtige Orte der Stadt. Was als Suche nach historischen Aufzeichnungen begann, zeigte schnell, wie aktuelle Ereignisse unser Verständnis der Vergangenheit beeinflussen und neu gestalten können. Die Installation umfasst etwa 40 großformatige Fotografien, die in der gesamten Galerie ausgestellt sind. Jedes Bild ist mit einer kurzen handschriftlichen Notiz versehen, die den Kontext erläutert. Die Serie beginnt in Sajmište, dem ehemaligen Konzentrationslager, und führt dann zum Archiv, zum Museum und zum Generalštab-Gebäude. Sie geht auch auf den Kosovo-Serbien-Konflikt und die jüngsten Regierungsproteste ein und verbindet die Kriegsgeschichte mit den sozialen und politischen Realitäten der Gegenwart.“

Cosmo Großbach „EMPTY LUNGS“ (2025) „The work empty lungs offers a glimpse into my daily struggle to leave my room. The title refers to my feeling of being unable to breathe while being outside. Silver gelatine prints of objects I need to carry with me at all times – earplugs, water, sunglasses, and a cap – and a self-portrait are sewn onto a textile. These objects are necessary to avoid sensory overload or, when avoidance isn’t possible, calm me down. Embroidered sentences on the textile provide insight into my mental state during episodes of sensory overload and words which are causing sensory overload create a frame within the textile. The textile combines sewn photographs, embroidered texts, and a self-portrait, creating a layered representation of my daily reality. The tactile quality of the fabric invites viewers to engage with the work on a sensory level. It was very important to me to have a layer of softness within the work to show a need for softness amid an otherwise harsh sensory environment. Embroidery, often associated to be a feminine task, subtly hints at gender stereotypes, adds another layer to my work as a transman. Sensory overload is a symptom experienced by many people with autism. Taste, touch, smell, sound and light can all be triggers. The result of an overload can be intense fear, wanting to flee, aggression and difficulty communicating. The aftermath is often extreme fatigue, discomfort and restlessness.“ @hgbleipzig Rundgang 2025, class exhibition „a place called home“
