BETWEEN INTERIOR SPACE AND ATMOSPHERE

Johannes Rochhausen’s painting focuses on the interior as a site of perception and concentration. His studio views and still lifes depict rooms—or fragments of them—in which work is done, thoughts take shape, and seeing becomes an active process. Yet his paintings are far more than mere representations of a place.

Rochhausen invites us to enter the spaces he has traversed and transforms what is immediately seen into a realm of experience in which external reality and inner sensation converge.
Since the Early Renaissance, the interior has been understood as a pictorial space capable of expressing inner states. Rochhausen continues this tradition in a contemporary manner: his studio scenes do not simply tell of objects, but become reflections of an inner world. Working directly from observation, he uses the brush to develop pictorial spaces of quiet intensity from his immediate surroundings.

Rochhausen’s painting is defined by an extraordinary sensitivity to the finest nuances, the result of working directly from nature. Through the painter’s eye and hand, space becomes sensually tangible for the viewer: the coolness of shadow, the fine dust resting on the surfaces of things. Everyday elements such as walls and floors become experiences in themselves. Concrete space is translated into painting and transformed into a realm of experience that renders the visible sensuously perceptible.

The works presented in POOL REFLECTIONS are marked by a summery lightness. Sunlight filters through curtains and windows, settles across surfaces, and makes the warmth of the moment almost physically palpable. Furniture, plants, and studio utensils appear as elements of a quiet composition that resists any precise temporal setting. Space becomes not only an expression of concentrated looking, but also the image of a timeless moment.

BETWEEN THE EVENT OF COLOR AND OBSERVATION

Uta Reinhardt’s works emerge from the interplay of intuition, perception, and a profound understanding of painting’s possibilities. The screenprint monotypes and the painting Badende (Bathers) presented in POOL REFLECTIONS move between drawing and painting, between deliberate intervention and an open-ended process.

Reinhardt’s visual worlds are shaped by experiences of nature. Gardens, vegetation, and landscapes appear not as literal depictions but as spaces of memory within a human-made environment. Lines, fields of color, and areas of density unfold as both constructed and organic. These are forms that follow their own rhythm. In the monotypes in particular, the reproducibility of the printmaking process merges with the immediacy of the painterly gesture, resulting in works that feel at once concentrated and spontaneous.

A defining characteristic of Reinhardt’s practice is the ease with which she absorbs diverse pictorial traditions and translates them into a contemporary painterly language. Art-historical references do not function as quotations for their own sake; rather, they form part of an open visual mode of thinking in which perception, memory, and cultural knowledge enter into dialogue.

This approach becomes especially evident in the painting Badende (Bathers). The figures seem to emerge from the movement of color only to dissolve back into it. At the same time, a luminous pink wave alludes to Hokusai’s Great Wave, becoming part of an image world in which different times, places, perspectives, and states of being intersect.

The result is a body of work that balances figuration and abstraction, painting and drawing, while making perception itself tangible as an ongoing process of discovery.

BETWEEN MYTH AND HISTORY

The ceramic works of Analía Martínez draw on motifs from mythology, antiquity, and art history. Her sculptures evoke Gothic gargoyles, mythical creatures, and historical artefacts without directly quoting these sources. Instead, the artist transforms familiar forms into new figures that exist somewhere between human, animal, and fantasy.

Humour plays a central role in this process. Through subtle shifts, unexpected combinations, and deliberate distortions, Martinez removes historical references from their original context and opens them up to new interpretations. Her works appear both familiar and unfamiliar at the same time, resisting any clear categorisation.

In the ceramic works presented in POOL REFLECTIONS, Martínez explores how cultural images and ideas are passed down, transformed, and reimagined over centuries. By taking up traditional forms and rewriting them, she creates possibilities of what might have existed, but never did. Her sculptures thus reflect on the role of chance, transmission, and historical developments in shaping cultural identities, while raising the question of how our understanding of what it means to be human has been formed.

TRACES OF MEMORY

The small-format works of Swiss artist Dimitri Horta emerge through an experimental process involving copper, oxidation, resin, and paint. The different materials interact and transform one another, creating layered surfaces in which abstraction and representation coexist.

A recurring element in Horta’s work is the use of historical Swiss engravings. Fragments of landscapes, architecture, and cultural imagery appear beneath translucent layers, only to disappear again. These references function less as direct quotations than as echoes of a collective memory, connecting personal recollection with broader cultural histories.

In the works presented in POOL REFLECTIONS, oxidation becomes both a material process and a metaphor. The shifting surfaces evoke landscapes reflected in water, images in transition, and memories that remain present while constantly changing. Horta’s works invite a slow and attentive viewing experience, revealing new details with every encounter.

THANK YOU FOR BEING YOU

This phrase appears in all three works by EVA & ADELE currently on view in the exhibition. It does not originate in the studio, but in public space. For decades, alongside their photographs, the artists have collected comments and spontaneous remarks from people they encountered. These encounters form the basis of the series CUM, in which language itself becomes artistic material.
The texts appear in works on paper and often serve as exhibition titles. In the current works, they are embedded within abstract, poetic visual worlds: traces of encounters, reflections on social perception, and expressions of the openness that has characterized the work of EVA & ADELE from the very beginning.

Alongside POOL REFLECTIONS, works by EVA & ADELE are currently on view and will be presented in the coming months at numerous international museums:

Tausendmal Berlin. Die Sammlung Hamburger Bahnhof – Nationalgalerie der Gegenwart, Berlin (ongoing)
THIS IS TOMORROW. New Presentation of the 20th / 21st Century Collection, Staatsgalerie Stuttgart (until September 2027)
Stellprobe. Collection Acquisitions from the Last Decade in a Display by Heimo Zobernig, Belvedere 21, Vienna (July 10 – October 4, 2026)
Everybody, Georg Kolbe Museum, Berlin (from August 8, 2026)
Biennale de Lyon (from September 18, 2026)
Art Gender Gap – Il corpo come casa, Casa Museo Hendrik Christian Andersen, Rome (from September 24, 2026)
Neugier im Fluß, Museum der Moderne, Mönchsberg, Salzburg (from October 1, 2026)
BELLES REBELLES, Saarlandmuseum, Saarbrücken (solo exhibition, from January 29, 2027)
