A group show on eBay Kleinanzeigen

The students describe the show as follows: (EN) For many of us, the digital platforms became a life-line during the stay home order. With many using their time in lockdown to de-clutter their living spaces, the platform eBay Kleinanzeigen became a place to hang out and see what neighbors were getting rid of. The exhibition Odds Without Ends uses eBay Kleinanzeigen, the largest online platform for classified ads in Germany, as an exhibition space for site-specific works.

Using eBay Kleinanzeigen as an exhibition space brings art directly to bargain hunter’s homes, invading their screens and grabbing their attention. This series of works uses the ad-space as its medium and networked space as its show room. The works unfold over 60 days – the maximum runtime of an ad on eBay Kleinanzeigen – each with its specific mode of exchange and participation.

Odds Without Ends presents works produced specifically for eBay Kleinanzeigen by students of Klasse Brenner/Bitnik @ ABK Stuttgart. Organized by !Mediengruppe Bitnik.
