CAMOUFLAGE Art Exhibition, February 5-13, 2026. Open Monday-Saturday, 11 AM - 6 PM

Opening reception: Thursday, February 5, 7 PM - 9 PM

Introduction: Dr. Barbara Aust-Wegemund, Art Curator & Concert: Kyle Egret, Guitar, Free Entry

Venue: Levantehaus Hamburg, Gallery 1. Floor, Mönckebergstrasse 7, Hamburg

The exhibition CAMOUFLAGE explores the art of concealment, imitation, and deliberate deception—strategies that are as intrinsic to nature as they are to human behavior. In the natural world, we encounter fascinating mechanisms of adaptation, mimicry, and mimesis through which living organisms imitate their surroundings in order to protect themselves, to deceive, and ultimately to survive. These phenomena open up a broad field for artistic reflection, situated between illusion and revelation, concealment and exposure.

The art show brings together eight contemporary artistic positions that approach the multilayered nature of reality through diverse media and strategies. What do we believe we see? Where do our perceptions deceive us—and why?

Curated by Dr. Barbara Aust-Wegemund, art historian and founder of AHC PROJECTS HAMBURG, the exhibition continues her long-standing practice of presenting and fostering international artistic positions in dialogue.

PARTICIPAING ARTISTS: Irina Anis (painting), Robin Cruise (painting), Kyle Egret (painting, music), Dagmar Rauwald (installation), Arezoo Rezaei (painting), Susanne Scheffczyk (painting), Ole Terslose (digital art, sculpture), and Mia Wang (painting).
