We are pleased to invite you to the opening of What lays bare in me, with Madeleine Boschan.

In her architectural sculptures, Madeleine Boschan (*1979 in Braunschweig, Germany) creates visible layers of historical, emotional, and spiritual aspects that characterize all manmade locations and spaces. Her works resemble portals of an archaic quality, like sites of a past culture or long-forgotten rites. Within their proximity they generate an energy that causes thoughts and even bodies to vibrate.

The show comprises a series of seven elegant and fragile sculptures, which use Boschan’s signature color palette. They suggest that architecture is more than the fundamental human need to create a roof over one?s head. Moreover, they raise social and ethical questions for the viewer such as ‘Where and how are encounters possible?’

Coinciding with the show, Zeller van Almsick are opening Trapped in Furs with Dejan Dukic, on the same floor:

Dejan Dukic - Trapped in Furs
ZELLER VAN ALMSICK

Dukic condenses painting to its essential elements: color and canvas. His paintings turn the inside out - he paints, but the color is massaged through the pores from the back of the canvas, where the structure of the fabric comes to define the morphology of the painting. The canvas does not act as a mere underlay, but becomes the principal constituent.

After living abroad in Thailand and China, Dejan Dukic has continued his work in Vienna and Styria to now present new works in his solo show ‘TRAPPED IN FURS’.
