Planetfall – Unfixed Ground
The opening of PLANET H with planetfall – unfixed ground marks a first landing. The exhibition’s title incorporates the name of the new art space and understands planetfall as touching down on ground that is not yet solidified. The term originates from science fiction and describes the moment when a spaceship first lands on an alien planet.
The artists Lisa Reiter, Edda Strobl, Simon Goritschnig, and Daniel Hafner approach this moment from different perspectives. Their works examine states and traces of transition, shifting coordinates and patterns of thought. Materials appear fragile or experimental, and the artistic statements, in their snapshots, suggest process. The ground on which we stand – physical as well as social – reveals itself less as a stable foundation than as something that is constantly changing.
In a time when certainties seem fragile and new approaches are needed, planetfall – unfixed ground sees itself as an attempt to understand the unsecured as a space of possibility.
PLANET H thus opens up a space that does not strive to define the constant, but rather creates room for exploration, exchange, and the joint balancing of new perspectives.

Modern People Baden

Site-specific explorations – Open, Mindful, Permeable – Radical Tenderness
Modern People is a hyperlocal, manual-algorithm-based performance series and an attempt to analyse society as an organism, and in particular its material excretions and waste, in order to gain insights into its state of health, comparable to a coprological examination.
Elke Auer und Daniel Hafner embark on a search for physical and intellectual spaces and through a playful process, place freely accessible material and immaterial resources in new social relations and make them sensually experienceable.
Performances
12.6. and 13.6.2026
Details coming soon.
The performances are part of the programme Ephemeral Forms of Presence. It unfolds as a five-part experimental exhibition. Through performance, it focuses on moments when art is not something to be displayed, but something to be lived. At its core lies the question of what happens when a work resists permanence, when art dissolves as an event — no longer visible, yet still felt: as a shared act of remembering, as a fleeting trace that exists only within the experience itself.
