ART DÜSSELDORF 2026

LOHAUS SOMINSKY presents a group exhibition at Art Düsseldorf 2026 at booth H10, bringing together six artistic positions that explore perception, transformation, and the relationship between nature, image, and space. The presentation includes works by Phoebe Derlee, Magdalena Jetelová, Janina Roider, Melanie Siegel, Juergen Staack, and Sarah Zagefka, whose practices span sculpture, painting, drawing, and interdisciplinary approaches.

Jetelová combines sculpture, photography, and light projection to address social, political, and ecological questions, transforming landscape into a reflective visual experience. Roider merges analogue and digital processes into layered compositions, while Staack’s conceptual work translates image into sound, investigating language, perception, and communication. Siegel constructs idealized environments that oscillate between utopia and dystopia, and Zagefka’s paintings focus on the traces of human presence within interior spaces. Derlee contributes expressive figurative paintings that explore intimacy, emotional distance, and the physicality of gesture.

In addition, Juergen Staack’s sculpture Communication Model 01 is selected for one of the fair’s sculpture sites. Referencing the obsolete infrastructure of the public telephone booth, the work reflects on shifting forms of communication and becomes a sculptural metaphor for the ephemerality of language and the fragility of human connection across distance.
