The immense depth effect of David Schnell’s (*1971) large-scale paintings virtually pullst he viewer into the pictorial space. The focus of his equally emotional and analytical image worlds is set on the examination of lanscape and spacial construction in the image space. With the use of different vanishing point perspectives and a caleidoscopic dynamic sampling of space, the Leipzig-based painter redefines the genre of landscape painting.
Schnell overlays depictions of landscapes with spacial fictions. In single works, the vanishing point of architecural elements – a barn, for instance – leads into a far depth, pushing the images’ spacial construction to ist limits, while other works directly merge architecture and nature; as though ripped apart by a giant explosion, the contruction fragments and reassembles ina complex and fascinating manner. David Schnell integrates the possibilities of depiction altered by computer programmes and games and the perception of virtual reality into a classical landscape – even the use of central perspective as artistic means is a cultural product.
The exhibition is a comprehensive overview over David Schnell’s oeuvre and is produced in cooperation with the GEM, museum voor actuele kunst, Den Haag, Netherlans, and the Museum Allerheiligen Schaffhausen, Switzerland.

Matthias Bitzer combines sculpture, wall drawing and installation to form an experience space of history. The works are positioned in the tension field between abstract and figurative imaging techniques that overlay each other and turn into a new form in space. Starting from portraits of persons at the periphery of history such as poet and artist Mina Loy (1882–1966) or author and Dada-co-founder Emmy Ball-Hennings (1885–1948), he translates the view on the past to a new layer of visual perception.
Abstract geometrical forms seem to dissolve the historical references and translate them into complex spacial concepts: wall drawings and architectural interventions are fragmented continuations of the paintings, sculptures and drawings in the exhibitions space. The isolated sets melt together in a magical and mystic imagery that nourishes the notion of painting as a form of materialized time perception.

It is often merely a few objects Jason Dodge sets into relation with a title in order to suggest an obscure story. His works seem rudimentary, incomplete, yet the combination of every day objects, materials that appear in fairy tales such as silver, a diamond, a golden ring or hemlock which immediately evokes the cup lead the viewer into a tightly knit web of allusions. Its denouement, however, always lies in the past or can only take place in the viewer’s imagination.
Those objects appearing as „leftovers“ and indications are always subjected to the artist’s careful aesthetic choice. With every story he tells, Jason Dodge places a piece of art in the space. This combination of concept and sensuality creates the field of poetic tension between a fairy tale’s narrative structure and the question of the consummate piece of art in which Jason Dodge’s works are positioned.
Jason Dodge’s works can be compared to the act of reading. Just as novels or poems evoke certain ideas in the reader the remaining objects are fragments of possible narratives. Their connection is never linear but opens up space for associations. The objects function as carefully deliberated impulses designed to inspire the viewer’s imagination and trigger a sensation of longing.
For the first time, Jason Dodge will combine the singular stories and romantic asociations suggested by the everyday objects and materials to form one large literary concept. A poetic text by the artist on the walls of the exhibition space will be the combining element of the works and rooms.
