16 March – 20 April, 2013
David Lynch became popular with movies such as “Blue Velvet“, “Wild at heart“ or the series “Twin Peaks“. What many don’t know about him: he began his career as a fine artist so that many movies contain processes derived from his education. Lynch (*1946, in Missoula, Montana) went to Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia from 1966-1970 and studied painting, sculpture and photography there. His first solo exhibition in Germany took place in 2009 at the Max-Ernst-Museum.

10 years of Art Karlsruhe, and for the 10th time Obrist Gallery will be participating! Over this period the fair has become one of the most important artfairs in the German-speaking world: Congratulations to the administration of the fair!
This year the gallery has moved to hall 2. With its emphasis on current contemporary positions this hall provides us with the best context. We are proud to present work of the following artists:
MARCELA BÖHM (One Artist Show) – After her outstanding solo exhibition at the gallery we show for the first time in Karlsruhe a One Artist Show of the Argentinian Painter.
DIETER KRÄNZLEIN – For years new stone works by Dieter Kränzlein belong to the highlights of our booth and the Art Karlsruhe.
JÜRGEN PAAS – The idea of color archives accompanies Jürgen Paas in his space installations, as well as in his paper and book works. With „Popplanet“ Paas just published a big monography, which we will present at our booth in Karlsruhe.
MARTIN SCHWENK – His solo exhibition at Museum Haus Lange Krefeld 2012 proved impressively, that Schwenk is amongst the most important sculptors in Germany. (Starting June 2013 exhibition of Martin Schwenk at Museum im Prediger, Schwäbisch-Gmünd.)
Moreover at our booth you can have a closer look at the works of Düsseldorf painter ARMIN HARTENSTEIN, at wooden sculptures by Mülheim-based ROBIN HORSCH and at works from the series „Black and Wide“ by Mannheim photographer PETER SCHLÖR.

Am nächsten Freitag ab 19 Uhr tagt der DESIGNERSTAMMTISCH in der Galerie. Parallel zur “Wundertüte” werden Arbeiten von Hendrik Dorgathen, Jamiri, Helge Jepsen, Frank Georg Lukas, Arndt Möller, Wolf Schily, Rainer Stock und Klaus Trommer zu sehen sein.
Der Designerstammtisch trifft sich nicht nur jeden Montag im De Prins, nein, er stellt nun erstmals auch gemeinsam in unserer Galerie aus. Allen beteiligten Künstlern gemein ist, dass sie Anfang der 90er Jahre bei Prof. Otto Näscher an der Folkwangschule in Essen studiert haben, und heute national und international für ihre Arbeit ausgezeichnet werden. Die Ausstellung knüpft an das Projekt “Gezeichnet, gepixelt, gedruckt” an, das 2010 in der Galerie vorgestellt wurde.

CATALOGUE 7/9/2012 -22/9/2012 shows KOKOMO, series of scanned objects, arranged together in an island-like setting. KOKOMO entitled a 1988 song by the Beach Boys, in which they describe Kokomo as an utopian island paradise located in the Bahamas. The artists play with this narrative structure of an imaginary geographic spot and turn it into -on a first sight abstract – images, that showcase various details of the scanning process of original three-dimensional objects at a closer look.

In the focus of the second part of the exhibition series CATALOGUE by Markus Hanakam and Roswitha Schüller is the short film INVASION, which lately was awarded as “Jury Selection Work” at Japan Media Arts Festival 2012. Here is the trailer:
There is a whole body of theoretical reflection about apparatus in cinema theory that could also be passed on photography. INVASION focusses on this wondrous and magical, but also ideological machine that produces a narration about reality as well as it is narration itself.
The film will show an partly absurd, partly reconstructed equipment, whose design is following descriptions and woodcuts of the compendium “The History and Practice of the Art of Photography; or the Production of Pictures through the Agency of Light” (1849).
The scene shows various movements and settings in handling the apparatus. A male Voice Over accompanies the scene. The atmosphere is similar to the genre of Science Fiction, where the machine becomes a crucial part of the story; it turns into a character among others.

Yesterday was the opening reception of the first part of the exhibition CATALOGUE by Markus Hanakam and Roswitha Schuller. Main work of this exhibition is the installation “White Cube with Sprinkles”, more than the half of the gallery floor is covered with sugar sprinkles. In addition to it two video works, one large-size drawing and two sculptures are to be seen, which all belong to the theme “TOPPINGS”. The Tartes by Hanakam & Schuller result from the artist couple’s ongoing occupation with dessert structures and toppings which they employ and explore as sculptural devices, translating the ranges of forms and color of these toppings into video animation, computer applications, objects, and occasional furniture.

26 May to 30 June, 2012
Following our recent Martin Schwenk exhibition, with Armin Hartenstein we present another highly topical sculptor position, despite the fact, that Hartenstein assesses himself as a painter. But this description falls too short: The large-format works take a look at a rock formation in a very sculpural way. The rock formation is separated from its environment, the outline of the work is identical to the shape of the rock formation, the picture carrier is three-dimensional in different directions. And even the manner of painting gives the illusion of three-dimensionality.
In his series “Mes Amis de Emmanuel Bove” he deforms small found fragments of plywood, cardboard, linoleum, plastic and other materials, breaks pieces off, adds others. At the same times he paints and draws landscapes onto the workpiece, which is accomplished in an open dialogue between painting and sculptoring. In this middle position Armin Hartenstein permanently questions the essentials of both art forms.
