until 31.08. | #2068ARTatBerlin | galerie1214 presents from 26th July 2018 the exhibition „Linie Fläche Raum“ by the artist Roland Dostal. In the framework of the opening on Thursday, 26th July, 6:30 pm, an artist talk with Roland Dostal will take place.

The work of Roland Dostal is carried out at the intersection of different positions, cultures and procedures, from the attitude that the path to truth in art is taken from very different points. Secrecy, development and density are key words for a work which Dostal has been constructing and forming for 30 years.

Dostal is an illustrator, developer, literally a geographer in a wealth of structures whose mapping he drives forward in the often many states of his works on paper, recently on rough bast. In an interview in 2014, after a stay in Asia of several years, Dostal strikingly explained his style of working: “I always work with the ‘fundus’, I work on it for years, and thus it is difficult to distinguish between old and new. The gestures of the 1980s can harmonise with a contemporary language, the old can be new – I am interested in concentration. (…) Whether something is new in a linear sense does not interest me. What happens in the opposite, in the dialogue with the viewer, outside of a concept, this what I find exciting”.

In this sense, Dostal often works with very simple materials and colours in image worlds and out of the ‘pool’ of these pictorial worlds. He claims to be able to discover something about the characteristics of a colour or about the coincidence of patterns that had hitherto not been recognised.
