Lumpen Station explores the radio as an extended exhibition format in the field of contemporary art.

Lumpen Station is a platform founded in 2019 as an acoustic extension of the espace libre visarte Biel/Bienne, with the intention of exploring radio as an extended exhibition format in the field of contemporary art. Lumpen Station develops its curatorial program through invitations and intervenes both in institutional art venues and in non-traditional, site-sensitive contexts. In addition to its digital presence, Lumpen Station produces site-specific installations conceived as artist workshops and immersive spaces for collective listening. All recorded content is first broadcast live, then archived and distributed as podcasts to extend the visibility of their participatory work across time and space. The platform has been run by Mathilde and Andrea Marioni since 2021. The original format can be experienced in the enter project space at Kunstmuseum Thun.
