"IAN DAVENPORT
– Farbradierungen aus den letzten Jahren"
In our current exhibition, we unveil a selection of new prints by Ian Davenport. The British artist, who became famous for his paintings of parallel lines which paddle on the bottom to rich pools of colour, has created a remarkable body of printmaking works during the last fifteen years. Besides from characteristic works that quote the appearance of his paintings, we showcase further exciting compositions. He pours the colour in diagonal stripes and comes to a new voluminous and soft haptic or he mirrors the colours side by side to get higher contrasts. Davenport, who graduated from the renowned Goldsmiths College in 1988, found to a new artistic message and composition. His works are on view in numerous public collections in Europe and the USA.
The exhibition in the studio of the gallery is open until January 7, 2022
In the main space and in the basement, we showcase the group exhibition “ACCROCHAGE” with artworks from the gallery’s collection and new acquisitions.

With this beautiful work by Edvard Munch we would wish you a Happy New Year 2023! Through the title, these two persons are supposed to be lonely but in the best sense of the word. While standing at the shore, they let their eyes wander until this wide horizon which opens their minds. Wouldn’t this be the best way and mood to welcoming the New Year? We wish you all the best, health and an open mind.

By opening the last advent calendar door, we wish you a Merry Christmas!
We send you very much HOPE for a peaceful New Year 2023. Robert Indiana’s sculpture HOPE was made as a homage to one of the strongest feelings. Besides his iconic LOVE sculptures, HOPE became a symbol for a hopeful future.

Ralph Fleck’s painting is determined by several motivic influences. He became famous for cityscapes and portrait-like pictures of vegetables and food. Wide fields of flowers are also a very important motif. It is not the flower by itself that inspires him but the possibility to create the vision of a blooming field while draping and shaping the colour on the canvas.

Light and Darkness are the main motifs of Franziskus Wendels’ paintings. It is a very frosty, snowy night but when recognizing the warm light in the window of this tiny house, one will feel save and confident. Darkness sometimes seems to be mysterious but without darkness there won’t be light.

Scottish artist Peter Doig led the figurative painting into the 21st century. His own memories and experiences, journeys, photographs and influences from film and music are the inexhaustible source from which Doig is constantly creating his images. Sometimes his landscapes are real, sometimes they only exist in his creative mind.

“Pitch” is a very symbolic artwork. We look at an astronautic research tent on the moon or any other planet. In the background, the planet Earth. Within the work series “Lunar Voyage” Tom Hammick dove into the spheric adventures of encountering the space. “Pitch” tells us something about the feeling to get a new sight onto things from a different point of view.

Since childhood, Antonio Saura was inspired by Francisco de Goyas “Pinturas negras”. He has painted a couple of portraits following this example. The pictorial space is nearly all over dark, an obvious hint to voidness and the phenomenon of empty space. In contrast to this, an implied head of a dog appears in the center. Presence and genesis are strongly linked to emptiness. The dog is on a beholders position and appears as a reminiscence to Goya who was an extraordinary beholder and became famous for his offensive, realistic portraiture.

Bernar Venet, one of the most important contemporary sculptors, has made the line to his main artistic subject. He puts the line in context with immaterial phenomena like time, movement, space, chance. Also, mathematic problem formulations have a huge impact to his work. Venet rolls and shapes steel to lines or arcs, which he arranges by accident, apparently. He became famous for his large-scale sculptures, which are installed in public space both in Europe and the USA.

While being a student, Patrick Caulfield encountered the poetry of Jules Laforgue (1860-1887). Laforgue’s writing had an important influence to later poets, but also to Caulfield. When in the late 1960s the idea came up to publish an illustrated book, Caulfield immediately chose Laforgues body of work. The artworks are more than illustrations; they are the depiction of what the poet might have seen while writing.

The artworks by Jan Voss are determined by serendipity and by his excitement for the random combination of colours and forms. His canvases, collages and wooden collages show a sort of horror vacui and they seem to have a compositional neighborhood to the appearance of comics.
His wooden collages are a translation of the painted motif into three-dimensional reliefs which are as vivid and dynamic as they were in motion.

Dietrich Klinge, one of the most important German contemporary sculptors, has made the head to one of his main motifs. The head as the centre of our body stands on his figurative work as a representative for the whole body, for the person. His head sculptures are not a portrait but evocative images of types, of characteristics or moods.

Patrick Hughes catches the beholder’s eye with stunning optical illusions. While passing by his artworks, one will be suddenly overwhelmed by the “movement”. By using what he describes a “reverse perspective”, his three-dimensional artworks start to shift – but only as an optical illusion.
One of his most beloved motifs are the Venice cityscapes like in this beautiful view in “Venetia”.
