Momentum. The art of the moment was a joint exhibition by Neues Museum Nürnberg and the Art Department of the Lutheran Church in Bavaria in 2023, curated by Helmut Braun, Thomas Heyden, Simone Schimpf, and Janette Witt.

The design focuses on the visualisation of a turning point – the momentum – as a white fading circle that is surrounded by the exhibition title. Using only black, white and the typeface Obviously by James Edmondson, the design creates a bold atmosphere. As an additional highlight color, the neon orange was chosen for the flyers and brochures. For different media, the condensed and extended font styles equally fill the individual formats.

The exhibition architecture by Martin Kinzlmaier reflects the key visual, by using a light fading circle spotted on the center of the exhibition hall’s floor.

Participating artists: Meide Büdel, Carmen Dobre-Hametner, Manuela Hartel, Angelika Huber, Sebastian Jung, Susanne Kutter, Johanna Strobel, Bernd Telle, Florian Tuercke, Stefanie Unruh, Stefanie Zoche and Benjamin Zuber.
