until 08.03. | #4575ARTatBerlin | Galerie Schindler is currently showing the exhibition ANTIMODE by the artists Andreas Hildebrandt and Susanne Ramolla.

In the exhibition ANTIMODE, Andreas Hildebrandt and Susanne Ramolla present an exploration of the principle of Anti-Mode Technology™. This technology, which is used in sound engineering to reduce and eliminate disturbing acoustic room resonances, forms the starting point for the artistic exploration of the relationship between technology, space and material as well as aesthetic perception. In German, the title ANTIMODE also refers to an attitude against fashion in the traditional sense, to the principle of non-fashion – free from aesthetic conventions and without orientation towards current trends. Hildebrandt and Ramolla play with this term and use it as a metaphor for an artistic attitude that opposes superficial aesthetics and the constant hunt for novelty. It is the search for an aesthetic purity that is not subject to the dictates of fashion.

Hildebrandt and Ramolla are interested in the ambivalence between the technical process of anti-fashion and the concept of anti-fashion as an aesthetic attitude that is not orientated towards fashionable trends. The technology, which can eliminate disturbing frequencies in a room using highly complex filters, is understood as a metaphor for an artistic practice whose central element is the “removal” of disturbing factors. Art, as Hildebrandt and Ramolla understand it, is not created by adding details, but by filtering out disruptive elements. This process is similar to Hildebrandt’s linocuts as well as Susanne Ramolla’s reduced objects, in which the picture or sculpture is created by omitting areas. Here, the “disturbing” is removed from perception in order to create a disturbance-free experience – there on an acoustic level, here on a visual level.

This approach eludes the logical order of consumer society and shows how a clear, pure space can be created by filtering out disturbances and superfluous elements.

ANTIMODE thus becomes a reflection on how art and technology can work together to create an awareness of the essential. The creative process behind the works in this exhibition also illustrates a deep connection between technology and art. The “Anti-Mode Technology™” is not just a technical principle, but becomes an artistic concept itself. The exhibition invites the viewer to experience the space in a new way and to focus on the simplicity and clarity created by the reduction of disturbances and targeted removal. This kind of “reduction” opens up a completely new spatial and visual experience for the viewer, free from the usual aesthetic constraints.

ANTIMODE is therefore an invitation to free oneself from the usual flood of information and impressions and to discover the essential – be it in sound, image or one’s own perception.

Exhibition dates: Thursday 30. January – Saturday, 08. March 2025
