– About visible traces of the creative process in contemporary art –

 

This exhibition focuses on the painting surface as a carrier of action, memory and meaning. The artists show how every brushstroke, scratch or layer of paint not only forms an image, but also leaves a trace of the action itself.

 

What is visible at first glance also forms a veil over what lies beneath: suggestion and concealment alternate. Instead of keeping secrets, the surface reveals the layers of thought and action. Here, painting opens up a field of traces: partly visible, partly tangible and at times inescapable.
