Bernhard Paul works serially. In systematic repetition he brings strokes onto the canvas, which form a rhythm through precisely planned overlays and colour gradients. With flatness and depth, repetition and variation, visible bars are created.

Saturday at 4 pm there will be a livestream with Bernhard Paul on Instaram! Join us to learn more about Paul's way of working.

Gantner transforms his visual vocabulary so that it turns and highlights different aspects of a topic.

Raymond Gantner takes up the principle of deconstruction. Like the Deconstructivists, Gantner dares to analytically dissolve structures beyond recognition. Following on from Dadaism, he playfully deals with sense and nonsense, with the meaning and interpretation of art.

Heiko Huber mixes techniques of multiple and long exposure and in his work, he plays with the medium "photography". By breaking with space and time, the photographer creates dreamy landscapes that move between painting and reality.

Tattoos have another imagery. It is a form of painting and sculpting.

- Pham Thai Ho -

Tune in at 4 pm on the instagram account for a livestream with Pham Thi Ho to find out more about his relation to tattoos and paintings. Interview will be in German.

Opening hours:
Wed - Sat 2 - 6 pm

Art work: Vogelfrei 2017, Tattoofarbe, Klebefolie auf Silikonhand, 19 x 12 x 5 cm, 600 €

12/11/2020

Pham Thai Ho finds his approaches in the field of tension between tattooing, art, and society. He brings together areas in his cross-genre works that could not be more opposite. Thus, dick-pics from the internet become a canvas for art, racist prejudices become self-portraits and old masters of painting are tattooed.

See you on Saturday at 4 pm for a livestream on Instagram with the Pham Thai Ho!

Irmi Obermeyer dedicates her art to fleeting movements. She takes up the basic features of the tried and tested technique of oil painting and yet interprets them in a completely new way. With sweeping brushstrokes she captures snapshots in oil. An apparent contradiction, which builds up a particularly interesting field of tension.

Livestream with Irmi Obermeyer on Instagram, Wednesday at 4 pm, in German.

Art works partly censored due to guidelines

Hos Mixed Media works approach these challenges aggressively, but above all from a clearly subjective position: In the installation "Power Violence", the artist makes baseball bats covered with Dick Pics wait threateningly for their use. The rather subtle aggressiveness of an unsolicited photo of an erect pen*s can no longer be denied or played down in this connection. The pen*s as a weapon, as an instrument of power, does not invite, it invites and invites. The threat that emanates from a masculinity that cannot or does not want to see these connotations with its own sex becomes tangible. The viewer is left with the defensive gesture because this cultural fixation on the phallus also has something ridiculous about it. Another conceivable twist is the possibility of self-defence offered by the baseball bat: Smash the patriachy!
***
Hos Mixed Media Arbeiten gehen diese Herausforderungen aggressiv, aber vor allem auch aus einer eindeutig subjektiven Position heraus an: In der Installation „Power Violence“ lässt der Künstler mit Dick Pics beklebte Baseballschläger bedrohlich auf ihren Einsatz warten. Die eher subtile Aggressivität eines unaufgefordert verschickten Fotos eines eregierten Pen*s kann in dieser Verbindung nicht mehr geleugnet oder heruntergespielt werden. Der Pen*s als Waffe, als Machtinstrument, lädt nicht ein, er fordert auf und ein. Die Bedrohung, die von einer Männlichkeit ausgeht, die diese Konnotationen mit dem eigenen Geschlecht nicht sehen kann oder will, wird fassbar. Den Betrachtenden bleibt die abwehrende Geste, denn diese kulturelle Fixierung auf den Phallus hat ganz geradeheraus auch etwas Lächerliches. Eine weitere denkbare Wendung ist die Möglichkeit der Selbstverteidigung, die der Baseballschläger anbietet: Smash the patriachy!

12/09/2020

2013 Pham Thai Ho had his first exhibition "Kreislauf der Banalität" at this gallery.

Banality is perceived as something trivial and shallow, a statement or an activity that does not involve any new ideas or values, a routine that accompanies us in our everyday life. In his new series "Circle of Banality" Thai Ho Pham proclaims the end of this triviality.

Smartphone – a trivial, modern object, becomes an inspiration. Nowadays almost everyone has one and enjoys its benefits. One of the most popular function of the smartphone is a camera. Everyone and everything can be photographed and published online. The product of this contemporary medium is to be found in every work of Thai Ho Pham. A spontaneous mobile photo is enhanced by the artist. Printed on a canvas photos are rehandled with oil mixed media. It remains unclear for the viewer what was printed and what was painted. Through the use of art historical motifs and the tattoo language, the artist completely alienates the activities and routines from everyday life.

Moreover, Thai Ho Pham breaks with the tradition of white canvas by using the photo printing on them. The artist refers to over aesthetics of our society. Everywhere – on the streets, in the shop windows and on TV, people try to make something "artistic" connected with design, dance or street art. Not everything is art, but everything can become art. Thai Ho Pham shows in his works that it is enough to appreciate the little things in life and at the same time he criticizes the bohémian zeitgeist of our society.

Hand in hand with this toxic, since threatening masculinity goes a more or less subliminal to brutally open misogyny, which - if not its origin, then its legitimation - finds in the Christian history of Adam and Eve and the fall of man caused by the latter. Ho takes up this misogynous myth of origin in his sculpture "Only God can judge me" and explicitly exaggerates it: the plastic skin of two rubber dolls placed in an unambiguous position is covered with Adam and Eve tattoos - motifs from art history, which has seldom been too bad to depict nudity and sexuality under the guise of a condemning school of morality. Ho leads these moral concepts ad absurdum by exchanging the premises: the medium is sinful here, while the symbolic fall from grace appears simple, harmless and above all double-morally charged.
***
Hand in Hand mit dieser toxischen, da bedrohlichen Männlichkeit geht eine mehr oder weniger unterschwellige bis brutal offene Frauenfeindlichkeit, die – wenn nicht ihren Ursprung, dann ihre Legitimation – in der christlichen Geschichte von Adam und Eva und dem durch letztere verursachten Sündenfall findet. Ho greift diesen misogynen Ursprungsmythos in seiner Skulptur „Only God can judge me“ auf und überhöht ihn explizit: Die Plastikhaut zweier in eindeutiger Stellung platzierten Gummipuppen ist übersät mit Adam und Eva-Tattoos – Motive aus der Kunstgeschichte, die sich selten zu schade war, Nacktheit und Sexualität unter dem Deckmantel der verurteilenden Moralschule darzustellen. Diese Moralvorstellungen führt Ho ad absurdum, indem er die Prämissen austauscht: Das Medium ist hier sündhaft, während der symbolische Sündenfall bieder, harmlos und vor allem doppelmoralisch aufgeladen erscheint.

All works, no matter what or by whom painted, are nothing but bagatelles and childish trifles... unless they are made and painted from life, and there can be nothing... better than to follow nature.

Summer Special #1

Pornography is all about excessive visibility. In his series “Uferlos” Pham Thai Ho combines erotic pieces from art history with pornographic film stills. By using his artistic strategy of overlaying and concealing Ho ridicules the voyeur’s urge to see everything. The eye keeps on searching for the explicit details, only to recognise it can’t recognise enough.

Want to try it yourself? Come by on Thursday a d takes a voyeuristic look!

Summer Special #2 - Irish Summer

In painting having a basic plan to follow helps surmount any initial hesitation. But this blueprint must be discarded early on and the painting must then be carried by its own momentum. Opportunities present themselves and decisions are made quickly. It is in this uncharted territory between the conscious plan and the opportunistic response that something new is born. In the gap between the structured origin and the introduced elements exists an unplanned result. This is the aspect George Warren most value. This new content emerges unexpectedly and becomes a building block for future work because it can never be recreated spontaneously again.
