until 22.03. | #4590ARTatBerlin | Galerie SCHMALFUSS BERLIN shows from 15. February 2025 the exhibition “Challenge of Colour – Hymnen an die Nacht” by the artists Jürgen Durner and Jörg Bach.
Jürgen Durner’s paintings are based on the perception of artificial light in urban space. Many differently colored light sources are reflected in reflecting window panes, which in turn merge very artificial illuminations of interior and exterior spaces.
Jürgen Durner, Königsblau, Oil on canvas, 55 x 55 cm, 2024
Currently, Durner succeeds in immensely increasing the color values of these light situations and thus bringing them to absolute brilliance. He explores the possibilities of painting with oil on canvas anew through the experimental combination of colors and techniques, thus reaching the limits of what can be painted.

Jörg Bach, Reflektor, 2024, Stainless steel, 45 x 80 x 32 cm
Jörg Bach mainly produces sculptures made of sheet steel in numerous variations and sizes. He creates both large and small wall objects as well as floor and free-standing sculptures, which can be natural, painted or made of polished stainless steel.
Jörg Bach, Wasserspiel, Stainless steel, 56 x 63 x 63 cm, 2016
Bach gives his works simple names such as Reflectors, Bleibe, Zankäpfel, Neuland, Wasserspiele or Höhlenblock. The intertwined or linked forms of his sculptures, which can be spherical or extremely elongated, are particularly striking. The twists and turns only touch each other slightly, lending the works lightness and transparency.
Vernissage: Saturday, 15. February 2025, 4 to 8 pm
Exhibition period: Saturday, 15. February until Saturday, 22. March 2025
