Tacker 2023 - Preselection Official Opening

The TACKER exhibition series, which is repeated every summer, is a pre-selection for the DEBUTANTS and THE FIRST YEARS OF PROFESSIONALITY programs for young talent at the BBK Munich and Upper Bavaria in the GALLERY OF ARTISTS.

Ten finalists will be determined after another jury meeting on site:

As DEBUTANTS of the BBK Munich and Upper Bavaria, three artists are given the opportunity of a solo exhibition with catalog funding, seven artists are invited to show their work in the exhibition THE FIRST YEARS OF PROFESSIONALITY, accompanied by a joint publication.

The symptomatic title TACKER refers to the two-part application process in which the jury, made up exclusively of artists, first makes an initial recommendation from the large number of portfolios received, and then questions the contributions positioned on site in a second discussion . This approach of making the freely developed works accessible in space within the framework of an exhibition format creates an authentic approach to the works that cannot be created via a portfolio.

Furthermore, TACKER / PRESELECTION is a challenging set-up due to the high quantity of the works that are presented as highlights, which brings together the highlights of current artistic creativity in a concentrated form. That is why TACKER / PRESELECTION is one of the most popular exhibition series in the Munich art scene.
