The solo exhibition “Passagiere der Nacht” by Ulrike Theusner (*1982, lives and works in Weimar) is inspired by Mikhael Hers film “Passengers of the Night”, which is set in Paris in the 1980s.
The melancholy and the elusive quality of the film, along with the yearning for vitality and the transient nature of existence, are reflected in Theusner’s new monotype series, “City of Dreamers”, and her pastel drawings. What does it mean to be human — to feel, to dream and to need relationships with others in order to exist? The works reflect the illusions, desires, infatuations, pains and pleasures of an increasingly uncontrollable world.
Passengers of the night
There was something warm and eternal about it: it will remain what we were for others,
fragments, fragments of us that they thought they saw. The dreams of us will remain,
that nourished them. And we were never the same,
but always those beautiful strangers, those passengers of the night,
who invented them and who resemble the fleeting shadows
in old forgotten mirrors
