Johannes Ehemann | Lev Khesin | Rhea Standke
June 11, 2026 – August 10, 2026
New Artists Show
Barbara von Stechow Gallery
The group exhibition *New Artists Show* brings together drei —Johannes Ehemann, Lev Khesin, and Rhea Standke—whose drei explores contemporary visual spaces that straddle the line between material experimentation and imagination. Standke’s utopian, surreal flower worlds meet Khesin’s sensually vibrant silicone works, as well as Ehemann’s hybrid paintings that hover between abstraction and photographic deconstruction. In their interplay, new perspectives on perception and the construction of reality emerge. The exhibition also marks their first presentation in the gallery’s program.
Johannes Ehemann develops a unique fusion of photography, abstract structure, and realistic painting. The starting point for his works is often photographic snapshots, which he alters and translates into painterly form. His works appear simultaneously precise, spontaneous, and surprisingly contemporary.
Lev Khesin works with unusual materials such as pigmented silicone. Layer by layer, he creates vibrant swaths of color and relief-like surfaces that shift in effect depending on the light and viewing angle. His works impressively combine painting, sculpture, and experimentation with materials.
Rhea Standke creates color-rich, poetic visual spaces. In her paintings, floral, organic, and crystalline forms unfold into luminous worlds full of movement and imagination. Her works invite viewers to immerse themselves in a nature that is both sensual and imaginary.
