"An Ear for Research" / Nora Sdun's article about Gerrit Frohne-Brinkmann's exhibition Earmouse at ABC Hamburg in 2022. / In this edition of MEDIA, we focus on an article by Nora Sdun in the Hamburg based magazine Untiefen, which used the occasion of Gerrit Frohne-Brinkmann’s exhibition Earmouse at ABC in 2022, curated by Martin Karcher, to devote a text to the delicate topic of Joseph Vacanti's research and the artists transmission of it. The article reminds the reader of the ever-widening gap between science and its opponents, be it in vaccination research or climate change, which is as present as ever and affects all parts of our society more and more. / By following his interests and again entering the historic border areas of natural and cultural science, the artist showcased multiple installations dedicated to the so-called Vacanti Mouse. A peculiar hybrid creature, which should had been listened to more carefully: While just a few meters away, vaccine opponents marched, the mice revealed something about misguided hostility towards science.
