in der Galerie Kai Hilgemann

Eröffnung 18.03. 2011 18:00 -21:00

Ausstellung 19.03 - 23. 04.2011

EDEN - die aktuelle Ausstellung von Marc Schmitz vereint die vielfältige Brandbreite seiner Arbeiten, die sich über seine aktuelle Malerei, zwei geknüpfte Objekte in Verbindung mit einer Wanduhr sowie einer Wandarbeit aus Neon Schrift erstreckt. Die Objekte und Malereien materialisieren imaginäre Metaphern im Raum gleich einer Projektionsfläche.

Dabei scheint der Titel der Ausstellung weniger Programm als vielmehr den point of departure der westlichen Kultur zu bezeichnen, wobei der Künstler durch die Benutzung unterschiedlicher Medien sich in ihrer Materialität scheinbar spielerisch klassischer Spannungsfelder entzieht. Balance als all-over reference zeigt sich besonders in der Malerei, die gänzlich ohne narrative Momente auskommt, und in fragiler Weise die zeitliche Referenz ihrer Produktion darbietet, und schutzlos konventionelle Bedeutung verwehrt.

Das Objekt N° 5 (Baku 2009), eine raumfüllende, trichterartige Struktur aus massiven grauen und gelben Nylonseilen, erscheint trotz seiner Masse schwebend und transparent als eine Manifestation räumlicher Vernetzung. Das durch Objekt N° 5 erstmals in Europa vorgestellte Spaces Projekt präsentiert die räumliche Netzstruktur an der Schnittstelle zur arabischen Kultur als eine zeitgenössische Formulierung der Sinnhaftigkeit der Arabeske. In seiner industriellen Adaption unterscheidet es sich signifikant von den über den Boden ausgebreiteten geknüpften Objekten aus Kamelhaar, Gummi, Perlen und Strass, die in ihrer durchwirkten Materialität ursprünglichen Bezug auf einen zentralasiatischen Kontext nehmen.

Mit EDEN ist in der Galerie Kai Hilgemann ein interessanter Überblick zu Marc Schmitz neueren Arbeiten zu sehen. Eröffnung am 18.03.19:00 bis zum 23. April 2011.

19.03 - 23. 04.2011

EDEN-the current exhibition of Marc Schmitz combines various and wide-ranging works of his art. His most recent paintings, two knotted objects in conjunction with a wall clock and wall art made of neon letters materialize fictive metaphors in space which functions as a projection screen in this context.

In doing so the title appears not so much to be programmatic but to denote the point of departure of western culture. By employing different media and their materiality the artist manages to elude typical fields of tension in modern art in an almost playful tone. In being completely void of narrative elements and by presenting the temporal references of its products in a concise and fragile manner, while defenselessly fending off conventional meaning, his paintings in particular reveal balance as an all-over reference of his oeuvre.

As a manifestation of spatial interconnectedness Objekt N°5 (Baku 2009), a space-filling, funnel-shaped structure made of massive grey and yellow nylon ropes, appears to be floating and transparent at the same time. With Objekt N°5 the project Spaces is presented in Europe for the first time. Its aim is to introduce the spatial reticulation at the intersection of Arab culture as a contemporary verbalization of the meaningfulness of the arabesque. In its industrial adaptation the arabesque contrasts the knotted objects made of camel hair, rubber, pearls and rhinestone significantly. Being spread out on the floor and with their interspersed materiality these artifacts establish a pristine reference to the Central Asian context of Spaces.

With EDEN the Galerie Kai Hilgemann offers an interesting and tantalizing panorama of Marc Schmitz more recent works.
