Saskia Noor van Imhoff
Zooming in and out, resizing, translating and unfolding, it’s only a short list of the associative formal system that Saskia Noor van Imhoff applies to existing artworks and artifacts. Hereby she allocates them a new place in her landscapes composed of sculptural objects and photographs. In # +15.00 – Impossible to apply reason to what […]
Asako Shiroki
In her artistic work, which generally takes the form of sculptures and installations, Asako Shiroki operates between functionalism and abstraction. The sculptural structures of her works first draw the viewer’s attention by appropriating the dimensions and shapes of everyday objects such as furniture items, frames and pavements. However, their functionalism is consistently broken by the […]

Ulrich Vogl, born in Kaufbeuren (Germany) in 1973, is based in Berlin. The expression “extension of drawing”, already the title of an exhibition and a publication, can be considered the leitmotiv of Ulrich Vogl’s artistic practice.

Takahiro Suzuki has already travelled to numerous countries with this project, writing his “IKIRO” in places as diverse as temples […]
Nicolás Robbio
Nicolás Robbio uses simple things for his work. A table, a chair and a range of everyday objects become “objects of general knowledge” – transformed into metaphors of meaning. The general quality of the objects is not their objective, everyday nature, but the way that they bear universal meaning above and beyond the boundaries of […]
Carsten Fock
Whether Caspar David Friedrich, Heinrich Reinhold or Ludwig Richter – they all portrayed the Watzmann mountain, which may be regarded as a scene of longing for German Romanticism. Situated only a short distance as the crow flies from Obersalzberg, Adolf Hitler’s later holiday retreat, the area in the foothills of the German Alps has remained […]
