For the first time we show artworks by:

Claudia Desgranges

C. Doulgeris

Hans Schüle

In addition to the works of the three new artist, we are presenting a selection

 of new works by our established artist from our gallery program.

Claudia Desgranges is influenced in her painting by abstract expressionism, color field painting and American minimalism. 

The picture support for the works is aluminum, which appears to float flat on the exhibition walls, held invisibly at a distance. The background shimmers with metallic reflections through delicate layers of color and unfolds its own puzzle of light and color. 

In the series of 'Composite Paintings', several differently painted color plates are combined to form a pictorial composition. The different distances from the wall emphasize the object character and the depth effect of the works.

In the "dots" series, different directions of movement intersect on the surface. The color fields seem to move. They emerge gently from the depths, allowing the aluminum picture carrier to unfold its space-dissolving effect with freely floating color gradients.

Chris Doulgeris has spent the last five years exploring abstraction, new media and new technologies. Influenced by the Düsseldorf School, he expanded his understanding of machines as industrial archetypes in his visual art, giving them the ability to act and exploring their positions and faults.

In the Batches series, he creates works using old and damaged printers. His works are created through meticulous editing and collages of paper or printed files that he has collected over the years. All of this is reproduced using modern printing and embossing methods, resulting in highly detailed works.

Chris Doulgeris uses old printers he finds in the recycling garbage can and tries to salvage them down to their last shred of functionality. He sees printer errors as new opportunities for life - they are projects with a new ecological scale. His works consist of prints with indelible inks on archival cotton paper.

Hans Schüle - In his sculptural works in steel, Hans Schüle explores the tension between dynamically moving form and free penetration of space. Schüle prefers to work in different series in which he explores the interplay between form and space in ever new variations. 

"For me, sculpture means: space circumscribed with steel, geometrically, organically, against and with the material, from open and permeable to closed and compact. Dynamically, finding form, giving structure.“ This is how Hans Schüle formulates the creative and intellectual intentions of his work.
