We are pleased to present the new exhibition "Notes on Abstraction". The group show includes new works by John Armleder, Walead Beshty, Evelina Cajacob, Pia Fries and Bethan Huws. The idea for this exhibition developed from geometric abstraction. However, the concept of abstraction as a way of thinking goes much further than the formal in abstract art. For example, language, money, and media, are all forms of abstraction. It is a broad field that involves thought patterns, imagery, language, and socio-political norms of our everyday life. The exhibition "Notes on Abstraction" is intended to give space to precisely this multifaceted examination of the subject by contemporary artists, and in doing so to make visible factors of content and form. Consequently, two approaches open up, which can take on an intellectually deconstructivist, or an intuitive, organic form. Thus, we present a broad field of works to show how abstraction can be understood today.
