exhibition | oscar murillo: collective osmosis

Oscar Murillo. Collective Osmosis is a major exhibition at DAS MINSK and Museum Barberini, bringing together works by Oscar Murillo in dialogue with paintings by Claude Monet.⁠

For Murillo, the scientific metaphor of osmosis—the process by which water particles move through a semi-permeable membrane to reach equilibrium—offers a way to think about opening the museum: building connections between interior and exterior spaces, between the museum and the city, and between Potsdam and the wider world.⁠
⁠
For the exhibition, Murillo has created a series of new ­paintings, on view at both museums. At the same time, key works from renowned series by Claude Monet will be presented at DAS MINSK.⁠ 

The exhibition features new abstract paintings by the artist from the Surge, Scarred Spirits, and Disrupted Frequencies series and invites visitors to participate in the creation of a collaborative artwork during the summer months.
