JACQUELINE HASSINK

What do the centers of economic power look like in the post-industrial age? Conceptual artist Jacqueline Hassink explores questions like these.

GREGORY CREWDSON

KERSTIN DRECHSEL

Kerstin Drechsel's works fascinate and irritate. She shows spaces and scenes of great intimacy, in which a fundamental examination and questioning of norms and boundaries is embedded.

ALEXANDER RODIN

Alexander Rodin's paintings demand patience and imagination from the viewer. He covers his large-scale oil paintings with countless hidden details that come together to form complex, disturbing stories with multiple levels of interpretation.

GORAN DJUROVIC

The mostly small-format paintings by Belgrade-born artist Goran Djurovic are often enigmatically ironically broken and whimsically pointed. With almost psychoanalytical persistence, they revolve around self-deception, social maladjustment, and character deformation.

HERBERT BRANDL

Herbert Brandl is considered an important innovator of painting. Every brushstroke is a gesture that makes the painting process itself the subject. Even when he creates what appears to be representational, he dissolves the familiar world into clouds and splashes of color.

MONIKA GRZYMALA

Monika Grzymala's exploration of drawing and line follows a long art-philosophical tradition, but in her works of recent years she has impressively taken the line out of two-dimensionality.

GUSTAV KLIMT

RICHARD SERRA

With his provocative and innovative works, Richard Serra is one of the most outstanding sculptors of our time. His large-scale sculptures have revolutionized contemporary sculpture.

CONSTANTIN BRANCUSI

Brancusi is one of the most important sculptors of Classical Modernism. He took up themes from antiquity and elements of African and Romanian folk art and developed them further in long series of works through consistent abstraction.
