This year, at art KARLSRUHE 2024, we are pleased to present three artists from our gallery programme whose works show new perspectives on contemporary abstraction and sculpture, as well as figurative painting.

Enrico Bach (*1980 in Leipzig, based in Karlsruhe)

Enrico Bach (*1980 in Leipzig, based in Karlsruhe)

Enrico Bach's compositions are characterized by the division of the pictorial space into two halves. A picture-within-a-picture principle in which each side stands on its own and yet corresponds with the other half. The layered areas of color and pattern thus create the illusion of a more or less deep space. At the same time, Bach leaves behind the conventional compositional pattern of a centered motif: the picture's edge, ground and interfaces become depth-giving design levels.

Nina Laaf (*1977 in Hilden, based in Karlsruhe)

Nina Laaf (*1977 in Hilden, based in Karlsruhe)

In her works, Nina Laaf deals with strategies of irritation, alienation, context shifting and the questioning of visual habits; in her artistic work, she examines material qualities and their limits.

Alex Feuerstein (*1981 in Heidelberg, based in the Odenwald)

Alex Feuerstein (*1981 in Heidelberg, based in the Odenwald)

The compositions in Feuerstein's paintings show abstract scenes that oscillate between fiction and reality. Banal perspectives change into dream-like sequences that are left so wide open and alienated that they can neither be clearly assigned in time nor in space: Is it the sun that shines there or perhaps the moon after all? Are the bizarrely billowing loops plumes of smoke or thunderclouds?
