🎨 *Essential Anna*. Johannes Hüppi, 2017. Oil on canvas.

🖌️With a traditional formal approach from Hueppi, *Essential Anna*'s eyes come out from the canvas. Through a very light paintstroke and a warm chromatism, Hueppi manages to point out the portrait's sight deepness and creates a floating atmosphera around it. Her face, her thoughts, her eyes, they are there, in between the paint layers.

✒️ Can you guess what is she thinking about?

👤Johannes Hüppi (Baden-Baden, 1965) is a painter working in figuration, drawing, and watercolor. A Roy Lichtenstein Prize recipient and former professor at institutions in Germany and Mexico, his work is held in major German museums including MMK Frankfurt, Kunsthalle Recklinghausen, and Museum Frieder Burda Baden-Baden. With international studios and a three-decade exhibition history, Hüppi's practice bridges classical technique and contemporary artistic discourse.

🖼️*In My Eye*, curated by Wolfgang Flad. In BcMA until 05.06.
🖼️ In Grölle Gallery, Wuppertal () from 13.06 to 22.07.2026

🎨Untitled (A crazy man stole my eyes), Daniele Buetti. Graphite on paper.

🖌️With an irreverent approach to the topic, Buetti's artwork features the innocence of an unworried line together with the violence of written worlds, generating a strong suggestive contrast. The formality chosen by the artist reminds us of a humoristic vignette, that is however making us uncomfortable. Staring into the character's dark void, that is substituting its eyeballs, generates in us a ghoulish introspective feeling in front of which we feel forlorn.

✒️How do you feel when you read into this arwork's worlds?

👤Daniele Buetti (Freiburg im Üechtland, 1955) is a Swiss artist working across photography, installation, video, and digital media. Known for provocative explorations of identity and beauty since the 1990s, his practice interrogates representation and the constructed self. As professor at Kunstakademie Münster since 2004, his work appears in major collections at Kunsthaus Zürich, Kunstmuseum Bern, and the Reina Sofía Madrid, with exhibitions across Europe's leading institutions.

🖼️In My Eye, curated by Wolfgang Flad. In BcMA until 05.06.

🎨 Betonkopf 13. Achim Riethmann, 2026. Screed concrete and lacquered UV glass.
🎨Automaske 1. Achim Riethmann, 2023. Watercolor and acrylic on paper behind lacquered UV glass.

🖌️Operating from a mechanical imaginery, Riethmann's artworks incline towards a neofuturistic, distopian figuration emphasized by a formality where concrete, metalic textures and geometrical shapes are the main formal elements. With a heavy presence in the exhibition room, this mechanical antropormorph universe that the artists generates calls for a reading into the realtionships between humans and machines in the post-industrial era.

✒️Which piece catches your eye?

👤Achim Riethmann (London, 1979) is a Berlin-based artist working in watercolor, painting, and installation to investigate socio-political themes and individual desire. His practice employs reduction and omission, layering delicate watercolor drawings behind industrially treated glass or exploring bodies in oil paint. Award-winning and widely collected, his work is held at the Albertina Vienna and major international collections. Based in Berlin, his practice bridges conceptual inquiry with material experimentation.

BcmA is proud to present 𝘐𝘯 𝘮𝘺 𝘦𝘺𝘦: 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘈𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘰𝘮𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘎𝘢𝘻𝘦.

What does it mean to truly look? Not just to see but to inhabit. To meet a face on canvas and find, somewhere within it, a fragment of yourself.
Colour that arrests. Portraits that hold. Gazes that look back.
A journey through recognition, identity, and the deeply personal act of perception where the final image is never on the wall, but constructed entirely within you.

Join us for the vernissage on 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘆, 𝗠𝗮𝘆 𝟭𝟴𝘁𝗵.

Following its presentation at BcmA, the exhibition will be hosted by Galerie GRÖLLE, Wuppertal.
