Ruine München: RM Jochenstein (Nürnberg Transfer)
30.11.2025, 15:00
Kunstverein Nürnberg – Albrecht Dürer Gesellschaft
As part of the performance series Reveries, Ruine München presents RM Jochenstein (Nürnberg Transfer), developed together with the Companion Daphnia magna, the artists Anna Lena Keller, Simone Körner and musician Nanako Tamai. The artists weave both historical and imagined links between the Danube — where the so‑called “wet border” between Germany and Austria runs near Passau — and the Wöhrder See, situated right next to the Kunstverein Nürnberg – Albrecht Dürer Gesellschaft. The rock of Jochenstein on the Danube and the power plant named after it enter into a dialogue with the Wöhrder See — built in the 1980s — which links the Pegnitz floodplains and hides the bomb craters of the Second World War. The meeting point on 30 November is at Kunstverein Nürnberg – Albrecht Dürer Gesellschaft. Free of charge and no registration required.
RM Jochenstein (Nürnberg Transfer) marks the beginning of the three-part performance series Reveries, in which the artists S*an D. Henry‑Smith, Mira Mann, and Ruine München engage with different public spaces in Nuremberg. “Reveries” responds to a present shaped by geopolitical tensions, ecological crises, social polarization, and protest — conditions that at times converge with personal overwhelm, withdrawal, and escapism. The titular daydream becomes a tool for critical reflection and a starting point for collectively shared imaginaries.
Ruine München is a transdisciplinary artists’ collective founded in 2014 by Jan Erbelding, Maria VMier, and Leo Heinik. Working at the intersection of text, performance, and installation, they collaborate with changing human and more-than-human partners, the so‑called Companions, to explore local histories, architecture, infrastructure, and social realities. The resulting proliferative portraits follow the visible and invisible, the organic and the constructed ties that shape it.
