until 13.06. | #5063ARTatBerlin | Meyer Riegger Berlin shows from Friday, 1. May 2026 the exhibition Der See und die Sonne by the artist Caroline Bachmann.
On the occasion of Gallery Weekend 2026, Meyer Riegger is pleased to present a new series of paintings by Caroline Bachmann.
‘A place can repeat itself without being the same. In Wisconsin, there is a Geneva Lake that shares hardly anything but the designation with its European namesake. Geneva Lake was named in 1835 after an eponymous body of water in New York State and had previously been called Kish-Way-Kee-Tow. In Caroline Bachmann’s new series of paintings, such shifts become the point of departure. The location named Geneva Lake is not explored as a fixed geographical entity, but as a structure constituted by memory, projection and experience. Between the earlier paintings of Lake Geneva and the new works on Geneva Lake, closeness and distance do not appear exclusively as relational space, but as intertwined moments of perception that re-create places as framed landscapes in an ambiguous sense.’
Excerpt from the text by Melanie Ohnemus, translated by Karl Hoffmann.
