With his project “Collective Osmosis,” Murillo creates a dialogue between his contemporary painting practice, his installations, and the impressionist works of Claude Monet. The exhibition highlights the potential inherent in every human being to create artistic gestures with a brush, hand, or pen.

The term “osmosis” used in the title describes how water particles move through a semipermeable membrane to achieve a state of equilibrium. Murillo uses this symbolism for the opening of the museum: his exhibition creates permeability and exchange between inside and outside, between museum and city, and between Potsdam and the world. The project also marks the first collaboration between Minsk and the Museum Barberini: works by Oscar Murillo are on display in both venues.

The exhibition is curated by Anna Schneider and Daniel Milnes with Luisa Bachmann as curatorial assistant.
