Der Grund ist nicht Licht, sondern Nacht

Over the course of 2014, the gallery will showcase an extensive series of group and dialogue exhibitions: For the 2014 edition of the Berlin Gallery Weekend, we will be opening an exhibition with Yorgos Stamkopoulos , Julie Oppermann and Alexander Wolff that explores the forms, possibilities and limits of painting.
Through their surfaces, structures and the ways in which they are assembled, the works in the exhibition move in direct relation to the surrounding exhibition space and installed artwork. In their use of optical irritations, often intense color and repetitive rhythm, they oscillate between playful sensuality and analytical concept.
 The title of the exhibition comes from the diaries of Paul Klee, who in 1908 was beginning to build up his works on a black ground (rather than white), remarking that darkness was the "natural state" of things, and light was that which made it visible.
