serial two-colour
works impress the viewer with their special materiality and precise
assembly: The arrangement of 216 square wax plates each produce a rhythm
recalling pictorial numerical sequences. Freya Hattenberger’s (born
1978) videos and photographs playfully examine the location of the body
in space: A reflection space dealing with the prerequisites of artistic
creativity comes about to the extent that the artist herself becomes a
part of her works. Social and socially critical questions are concealed
behind Sven Johne’s (born 1976) serial photographs, the motifs of which
initially seem light and poetic. Most of his works evolve from
comprehensive research and archival work. Alicja Kwade’s (born 1979)
sculptural stagings present everyday objects in a new way: The laws of
physics seem to have been suspended when forms made out of wood, steel,
glass, light tubes and bronze orbit around a fictitious middle point.
Cathleen Schuster’s (born 1977) videos pose questions on global market
structures and their impact on society. Based on archival material as
well as her own photographs, she depicts bleak urban landscapes. The
large-format paintings by Sibylle Springer (born 1975) are open
interpretation surfaces that seemingly only suggest space and object.
The associative power of her acrylic and watercolour landscapes is
further heightened by such suggestive titles as White Noise and Burst.
