Marcela Böhm. What Never Changes.
“That we togehter with the painter are left between dream and nightmare establishes the quality of her painting. The familiar becomes alien and treacherous, the everyday turns unfamiliar and threatening. …Read this way, Marcela Böhm’s painting is in its beauty as well as its abrupt, occasionally brutal disruption a continuous battle for security, for pictures …

Dirk Salz – Painting The Absolute
“Objektive sensory knowledge is not possible. The fact that works by Dirk Salz reflect this in the medium of painting turns out for the viewer, however, not to be the expression of despair over knowledge theory, but rather it awakens curiosity and a desire to discover and makes way for unexpected insights into the nature …

Simone Haack. Hinterland.
The new paintings by Berlin artist Simone Haack open up paradoxical worlds. The soft painted portraits and the idyllic landscapes seem to derive from the field of classical beauty and harmony, but at a second glance the viewer recognizes the subtleness, the mistery and disconcertment in this strange pictorial world.

cutout
The shape of an “empty frame“ is spread out across the middle of the gallery. Through Armin Hartenstein’s “cutout“ a wide landscape in the form of an earthwork-like red-ocher framework comes into view. Now, a discourse between associative seeing (and thinking) about the morphology of landscape and images develops in the current exhibition in our …

Dirk Salz. Resin.
Brush and canvas are not used in Dirk Salz’s paintings: with the aid of paint rollers and gravity he spreads resin on solid panels. The result are images that are a true viewing experience. They thematize the interplay of light, color and space and with that the possibilities and limits of our perception. By not …
