Alfred Ehrhardt Foundation Berlin presents Michael´s new solo exhibition "Planetary Echoes“.
The Alfred Ehrhardt Foundation presents the solo exhibition “Planetary Echoes“ by Michael Najjar. The exhibition focusses on the idea of terraforming and future human settlements in space. Michael’s photo and video compositions suggest formal and thematic similarities between our own home planet and other moons and planets in the solar system. The various levels of similarity between terrestrial and extraterrestrial environments shown in the exhibition correspond perfectly with the focus of the Alfred Ehrhardt Foundation program. The cosmic laws postulated by Ehrhardt and his contemporaries, who were inspired by German Lebensphilosophie (a philosophical tendency rejecting rationalism and emphasizing human experience), identified congruencies between the microcosm and the macrocosm - a theme that echoes in the visionary dimensions of Michael’s new artworks mostly taken during a 3 weeks travel through Iceland in February 2017.
