Christian August’s abstract-expressive color worlds move in the play of intuitively and in a fast ductus
set gray tones and impasto color gradients.


His worlds of color glow and bubble, diffuse, organic, and alternate between loud and quiet, rough and smooth on the surface of the picture.


For digital natives of the first hour, some of Christian Bär’s paintings are likely to evoke a nostalgic longing.

Bram Braam, who is inspired by the rough environment of Berlin, shows in his works his personal view
on urban facades and their fragments.
He opens a narrative about the rapid and unrestrained development of the city and the works show a new perspective on architectural constructions and urban living spaces that shape our view of the city.




In his Vulkan series, Alex Feuerstein combines art historical references and contemporary perspectives of landscape painting in a bold, earthy color palette.





Hirofumi Fujiwara's figures, initially modeled in clay, stand or sit in space, at rest in themselves with a contemplative gaze directed into the indefinite.
They seem youthful yet ageless, androgynous and detached from any stereotypes – isolated from this world, yet anchored entirely in the moment.
In her work, Nina Laaf deals with strategies of irritation, alienation, context shifting and questioning of visual habits. In her artistic work, she examines the nature of materials, material compositions and their limits.




Schlingheider's exploration of geometric bodies and colour in three-dimensional space does not solely go hand in hand with the concept of a purely visual art.


Instead of existing purely representationally, his objects activate the space around them and reveal unexpected possibilities of perception and meaning.


Markus F. Strieder’s steel objects are full plastics, forged by hand from individual solid blocks of steel, which retain their impressive mass and rough surface structure despite their reshaping.

Grounded and soft, sometimes playfully light, they stand on the ground-despite the works’ enormous weight of up to several hundred kilograms.
