Light and Reflection: Christoph Dahlhausen
Artist / Curator / Author
Light, colour and space are the guiding principles of Christoph Dahlhausen’s artistic work. Both natural and artificial light and the interactions of light with reflective and translucent materials are at the centre of his installations and objects.
Light and colour as materials are also reflected in many of the exhibitions curated by Christoph Dahlhausen or become the subject of his publications, as in »Lightborn«.
As a curator, he has been organising international exhibitions for various institutions since the 1990s. From 2003 to 2019, he ran the exhibition project spaces »proximus« and »raum2810« in Bonn.

Christoph Dahlhausen – Growing Light / Galerie Peripherie, Tübingen
07.02. – 15.03.2026
Christoph Dahlhausen has developed a unique sculptural installation for Galerie Peripherie in Tübingen, which extends vertically both from the floor to the ceiling and from the ceiling to the floor. Here, he responds to the scaffolding poles mounted on the ceiling. From here, the artist has developed his first vertical (top-down) light installation.
Visitors will perceive the gallery in a special way. The view from the gallery will – unlike usual – not only allow a view of the art, but also, from an elevated position, a view of the work developing from the ceiling. Another down-to-earth scaffolding light object is placed in correspondence with the vertical part.
In combination and extension with the sculptural settings, Dahlhausen will show individual wall works from the “Bodies” series (car paint on aluminium honeycomb panels) and experimental photographic works.
