September 16 – October 28, 2023
Displayed in the first two rooms of the gallery, Anna Leonhardt’s paintings explore color, materiality, and space. By sculpting and layering the paint with a palette knife, the artist creates polychromatic, vividly rendered color fields with strong textures and spatial depth that form the background to floating abstract blocks of color. The gradual transformation of color, shape, space, and light creates a charged relationship between figure and ground.
Leonhardt’s earlier representational and figurative compositions have steadily dissolved into clashing fields of color over time, culminating in a consistently abstract style of painting that emphasizes the working process.

Claire de Santa Colomas Skulpturen aus gefundenen oder ihr zugetragenen Hölzern befragen zentrale Themen der Skulptur sowie die ihr zugrunde liegenden gestalterischen Mittel. Gezielt spielt sie auf das Vokabular der abstrakten Skulptur des 20. Jahrhunderts an – als eine Art Archetyp der Gattung „Skulptur“. Ihre neuen Werke weisen eine für die Künstlerin neuartige Figürlichkeit auf; sie erinnern an Körper, Kult- und Fetischobjekte, oder suggerieren – einer Umkehrlogik folgend – einen „Negativraum“ für den Körper.

Figur – so nennen wir unsere Ausstellung mit Werken von Horst Antes, Willi Baumeister, Karl Horst Hödicke, Karin Kneffel, Walter Stöhrer und Cornelius Völker.
Aus dem Aru von Willi Baumeister springt uns die vollendete Synthese des Begriffs an: Eine abstrakte Figur ist zunächst eine schwarze Fläche – und mit jedem Blick verschiebt sich ihre Gewichtung. Mal meint man, einem Rohrschachtest beizuwohnen, dann taucht ein Gesicht auf, eine fast heftige gestische Bewegung, plötzlich ruht die Fläche ganz in sich. Und in diesem Auftauchen von sich stetig wandelnden Bedeutungsebenen vollzieht sich das Gesicht der Ausstellung.
April 29 – June 17, 2023
As part of Gallery Weekend 2023, we open our second solo exhibition of artist Thomas Müller (*1959). Müller’s pictorial worlds are complex abstract arrangements that quite naturally elude common pattern of interpretation. His compositions are comprised of crystalline, woven, undulating, planar, taut and floating creations.
