Die Eröffnung findet am Samstag, den 18. September 2010
von 17.00 - 20.00 Uhr statt.

Laufzeit: 18.09. - 30.10.2010

Die ausgestellten Arbeiten werden im Ausstellungstitel Flachsland rauscht assoziativ miteinander verbunden. So steht das Rauschen sinnbildlich für die fulminante Ausdehnung der über die Grenzen der Materialität schreitenden Werke. Flachsland hingegen verortet die Materialität und die Ausdehnung, sodass im Titel das Spannungsgeflecht der ausgestellten Werke aufgegriffen wird.

After five years of gallery work in Bonn E105 will open its new head quarter in the Heidestraße / Berlin, and open with a group exhibition under the title Flachsland rauscht. The Bonn gallery, previously focusing exhibitions on young graduates of big German High schools and Academies, will expand its focal point. Next to selected young graduates the gallery’s program will also involve international and well-established artists. Single exhibitions and thematically developed group exhibitions will vary and position E105 in Berlin’s cultural life.

The Opening Exhibition Flachsland rauscht assembles nine international artists whose works concentrate on the conversion and transformation of material to its point of being an expressive piece of artwork. Focusing on the material as the haptic source for a creative process shows its constant presence in its modulation regarding the content as well as its form.

The shown works are associatively joined under the title Flachsland rauscht – flaxs land sweeps. The onomatopoetically sound of the German word Rauschen/sweeping stands allegorically for the fulminant expansion of the material that transgresses the borders of materiality itself. On the contrary Flachsland/flax land positions materiality as well as its expansion, so that the title Flachsland rauscht subsumes the tension in which the artworks may be perceived.

In the exhibition Wolfgang Ellenrieder ’s flowing tide of pigments, which stand at the beginning of a delicate spatial perception, encounter Marianna Uutinen’s voluminous and sensuous acrylic skins. The in the mid nineties evolved works of the Finn artist, conquer a third dimension by bursting on and over the canvas edges.

The Belgian graphic artist Henri Jacobs explores in his “journals” the frontiers of drawing and the efficiency of lines, by demonstrating how wonderfully versatile the line can vary in different compositions of ranks or blocs. The artist Achim Kobe develops wall-drawings by solely working with lines, and concentrating and relaxing a stringent raster structure as well as a monochrome intensity. Thus, the lines emerge between elegantly reduced geometrical figures and spatial imagination.

Kerstin Gottschalk ’s interventions play with the specific space they are given and irritate the spectator when she covers a whole room by waves of paraffin or stages a tiny tower of adhesive paper. The poetry that her work unfolds though, quite clearly shows where the movement of “Arte Povera” goes today.

The sculptures of the in Croatia born artist Nikola Ukic whose amorphous frozen volumes develop their coherent perception out of mere void, thus, position the used plastic and synthetic material between artificial fascination and chemical inedibility.

Iskender Yedilers blown-up, sewn and glued cloth and foil sculptures invite to define their volume themselves. According to what volume and what precipitation one gives them, the sculptures expand or reduce within in the space they occupy, so that they define not only their own extent but that around them as well.

The paintings by the Leipzig artist Henriette Grahnert move within the borders of gestural, substantial abstraction and calculated precise composition. Hence, associative spaces develop, and impress in every detail of their painted surface and structure as well as in the tilting perspective towards the spatial system they are positioned in.

In Renate Wolff ’s wax and encaustic work effeminateness and the dull silky impression of the material collide with the formed surfaces, angles, and perspectives of her theme. Thus, they produce a conditioned geometry that allows no form of fixation.
