Ultrasocial Pop

The idea behind the installation project is an analysis of the history and current development of society through the composition and deconstruction of the words “Ultra”, “Social” and “Pop”. The word “social” has a special meaning in art history, it is a direct reference to the concept of social sculpture by Joseph Beuys and thus a questioning of the place of politics in art. The word “pop” is a direct reference to pop culture and the flare-up of consumer society (Jean Baudrillard) since the 1950s. However, the contraction of these words also leads to a new definition of the word “pop” (people), the idea of ultra-social pop culture is also reflecting the word “populism” which is prevalent in our society today.
