Matti Braun [born 1968 in Berlin] in his work Cultural context: In his approximation interweave diverse historical and personal truths open, and shifting points of view, and inner realities ausere tiles together. His works range from small object works, appear in part as ethnographic or ethnological pieces (such as ceramics, batik or Glasblaserei), about photography to large-scale installations. Always, however, its precise and minimal work by a strong aesthetic Wirkkraft are coined. Braun's approach is based mostly artistic statement of search, in which he carries on historical, cultural, geographical or biographical contexts, which are condensed by association. Heterogeneous facts, meanings, images and forms joints into a complex network, intertwine, move and open perspectives. Each object, each material used has spurbar far about the addition. And with every object that is seen in this close association network, widens the field of reference, the essential part of the observer. The exhibition will be released in a catalog published by Walther Konig.

The installation presented there EXUBERANTIA suspended consisted of a luxuriant garden on a roof structure begrunten in the Romanian pavilion. Through an irrigation system, this garden with a wooden barrel in the space below was connected. From the roof garden of the viewer is offered a view about the maze of exhibition architecture. At the same time the installation seemed to be a symbol for the possibility of the existence of his shift into exile.
