WDC-Hub: Social Mapping

From 14.03.2026 renowned contemporary artist Oscar Murillo will take over the spaces at DAS MINSK Kunsthaus in Potsdam with his project Collective Osmosis, a celebration of mark-making creating moments of exchange between his paintings, installation works, and the work of Claude Monet.

For Murillo, the scientific metaphor of osmosis, the process by which water particles move through a semi-permeable boundary with the aim of reaching a state of equilibrium, can be seen as a model for opening the museum, building bridges between the indoor and outdoor space, between the museum and the city, as well as between Potsdam and the world. The exhibition also marks the first collaboration between DAS MINSK and Museum Barberini, with works by Oscar Murillo on display at both institutions.

OSCAR MURILLO (b. 1986, La Paila, Colombia) has developed a multifaceted and challenging practice that spans painting, collaborative projects, video, sound and installation.Through his work, the artist probes ideas of collectivity and shared culture, demonstrating a commitment to the power of material presence alongside complex meditations on contemporary society. In 2019 he was one of four artists to collectively win the prestigious Turner Prize.
