This exhibition presents Katharina Jahnke's humorous reworkings of technical and popular imagery.Katharina Jahnke's works combine technical design drawings from the nineteenth century with twentieth-century art-historical and popular literature and the imagery of contemporary pop culture. In collages, sculptures, installations, and wall pieces laced with inscrutable humor, Jahnke interrogates the material she collects, arranges it in novel and fantastic constellations, and tells stories about the interrelation between reality and fiction.Hic sunt leones includes an extensive series of photographs documenting the exhibition of the same title and offers representative insight into Jahnke's oeuvre.With an essay by Oliver Tepel, fiction by Mark von Schlegell, and an introduction by the curator Markus Mascher.
