Albrecht Schnider - At the Event Horizon - Haus am Waldsee - Berlin


April 22nd to June 19th 2011

The show starts with a painting from 1997. In several, upright and iridescent forms, it hints at the topic of landscape which is then expounded in the main exhibition room overseeing the park in a total installation in front of tinted walls. The viewer is confronted with the ambiguity of painterly forms which, in Schnider‘s case, grow out of the line and develop a strong spatiality “at the event horizon” through mirror imaging, vacuity and plentitude as well as positive-negative effects. In the rooms on the upper level, intense dialogues are instigated between drawing, sculpture, sketch-books and painting.
