Current: As part of his overall concept of “painting research”, Christian Frosch has dedicated himself for 25 years to the representation of all the processes, utensils and materials involved in the painting process. The studio becomes a laboratory in the sense of a place where structured thinking, experimental image creation and alchemical play come together. Finding new concepts and testing them in standardized processes and experimental set-ups determine his everyday artistic life. Some of the investigations and experiments result in series of works. For the exhibition “Showcase Painting Research” at augsburg contemporary, colored ice cubes melted on paper, sponges flew full of paint or a household vacuum cleaner robot became a painting assistant. | until April 19, Fri/Sat 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Isabelle Dyckerhoff >>repeat<< What are repetitions? What is a series? What is serial? Are these even the right words for works that begin with the same or similar painterly means and gestures, and when these individual works then become a series? Or is >>repeat<< rather the “questioning, searching, cautious probing, processual work”, that “art exists not only in the finished work, but above all in the process?” (Joerg Staeger). The exhibition >>repeat<< shows works by Isabelle Dyckerhoff that explore this question. | Opening Reception on Sunday, April 27th, 11am-4pm, duration until 7.6.25

Review: augsburg contemporary at art karlsruhe 2025. We have been showing new works by Anja Behrens, Isabelle Dyckerhoff, Inge Gutbrod, Anna Maria Kursawe, Elvira Lantenhammer and Kirk Sora. Floating ceilings, expanses as far as the eye can see - and art everywhere. For four days a year, art karlsruhe gave the art scene the chance to present itself live to a wide audience. Four halls, a large entrance and a green inner courtyard provide space for everything from the smallest prints to expansive sculptures.
