until 02.03. | #4140ARTatBerlin | Galerie Schindler presents from 18th January 2024 the exhibition One. two. three. four by the artist Frauke Bohge, Isabelle Dutoit, Anna-Lisa Unkuri and Sabine Wewer.
Many songs begin by counting in time … it’s 4/4 time when we count: one. two. three. four. before the music starts.
Galerie Schindler is starting the new year 2024 just as lively with four fantastic artists from Berlin, Leipzig and Bremen. The connection between art and title is intended to be humorous rather than intellectual. These are four extraordinary artists who dedicate themselves to figurative art with great craftsmanship.
Frauke Bohge
The artist explores the depths of time and memory, both in terms of content and form. Cityscapes and landscapes reflect the entanglement of space and time, while in works on childhood she explores the significance of experiences and dreams for our later personality. Materiality on the canvas or working with textiles sometimes pushes the boundaries of painting.
Bohge works in Berlin Charlottenburg.
Frauke Bohge, Sammeln, 2022, oil on canvas, 50 x 70 cm
Isabelle Dutoit
A piece of forest, animals that can only be recognised at second glance. Flowing colours, the movement of wings in the wind.
Isabelle Dutoit creates islands in a world of colour – an unknown place in blue, waiting wolves in green, the lioness in red.
An enraptured world. In reality, humans have long since invaded all existing biotopes. They are working intensively on ecological exodus, destroying landscapes and habitats – at the same time there is a longing for the originality and beauty of nature and an almost magical identification with creatures of the animal world. This dialectic is reflected through abstraction and finely crafted pictorial elements. An expressive colourfulness can be found in the paintings, some of which are large-format.
Isabelle Dutoit, Wolf, 2023, oil on canvas, 85 x 120 cm
Anna-Lisa Unkuri
Anna-Lisa Unkuri’s paintings take shape in a two-part process: the intuition-driven, expressive and abstract part and the other, figurative, which strives for a personal narrative. The ideas often come from her own family albums and photographs, in which signs are interpreted, black and white becomes colour and events take on a new meaning.
Anna-Lisa Unkuri, Fairly unreal, 2022, oil on canvas 70 x 50 cm
Sabine Wewer
Wewer’s artistic research is about transcendence and transmutation, and about the challenge of being able to stop transience through narratives.
The artist usually works in series; she is interested in workplaces of scientific research, autobiographical and ethnological contexts and certain complex momentary descriptions of light, interiors, architecture, flora, fauna and human interaction.
It is about research situations that evoke a kind of transcendence that Sabine Wewer wants to describe.
Sabine Wewer, Futur II, 2018, acrylic and oil on canvas, 60 x 60 cm
