Painting for the 29th Saisonstart
Die Malerei ist die älteste Form der Kunst in der Menschheitsgeschichte und bis heute ist sie stark in den Frankfurter Galerien vertreten. Zum Saisonstart präsentiert die Galerie Bärbel Grässlin neue Arbeiten aus der „Etcetera-Serie“ des Minimal-Art Künstlers und Beuys-Schülers Imi Knoebel (*1940 in Dessau). Die Bilder dieser neuen Serie sind wie einige der in den letzten Jahren entstandenen Werkgruppen mit Acryl auf massiven Aluminiumplatten gemalt. Auch Mark Dickenson, der mit seiner Galerie Neue Alte Brücke erstmalig beim Saisonstart teilnimmt, zeigt neue fotorealistisch-abstrakte Ölgemälde des Britischen Künstlers Will Daniels.
Galerie Hübner & Hübner is presenting new, opposing trends in the paintings of Ulrich Diekmann and Xue Liu in a double exhibition under the questioning title "KI - künstlerische Intelligenz | Zeitgeist?". Another graduate of the Städelschule and master student of Tobias Rehberger can be seen at Kunsthandel Hagemeier with the "High Intensity Paintings" by Janus Hochgesand.
Luxurious design classics set in a deserted village idyll, studio views and self-portraits - the artists' gaze and signature style pay homage to the everyday. The #artiststowatch exhibition at Galerie Egenolff (E30) Gallery brings together the latest generation of contemporary artists from Alanus University in Alfter.
The Vietnamese-born artist Nguyen Xuan Huy reveals the mastery and thematic density of classical European painting at the Rothamel Gallery. He came to Germany at the age of seventeen, completed his A-levels and studied at the Burg Giebichenstein Art Academy in Halle and the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Bordeaux. His painting in "Hybris" is compositionally multi-layered and of narrative complexity.
Margarete Zahn at Kunstraum Bernusstraße has been working with the St. Andrew's cross and its potential for artistic representation for more than 25 years. The artist depicts this X-shape in a wide variety of creative variations - in different formats both as a three-dimensional object made of wood and as a two-dimensional painting on canvas or paper.
