STERNTALER / THE STAR MONEY
Contemporary interpretation of the fairytale "Sterntaler" (engl. “The Star Money or Start Talers”) from the Children‘s and Household Tales of the Brothers Grimm. The artist gazes into the evening sky, where a string of Starlink satellites manufactured by SpaceX can be seen flying in a row alongside stylized stars. The work is a collaboration between Swaantje Güntzel and the Darmstadt-based photographer Andreas Zierhut. It was created during an Artist-in-Science Residency Güntzel held at the European Space Agency (ESA/ESOC) in Darmstadt in 2022, realized by Kultur einer Digitalstadt (KeD).
The work is currently on display in the exhibition "Infinity - Emptiness - Liveliness" at Planetarium Hamburg. Organized by Junge Akademie, curated by Anne Hemkendreis. The exhibition can be visited until May 31st, 2025.
