Philipp Fröhlich

The exhibition Ex-voto. Where is Nikki Black?, hosted by Laboratorio 987 (MUSAC) assembles some 20 paintings in different formats that the young artist Philipp Fröhlich (Schweinfurt, Germany, 1975) has done in recent years. These canvases show a series of scenes, both interior and exterior, which, through a dramatic use of lighting – which should come as no surprise given the artist’s background in stage design – suggest mysterious unfinished events to us. Fröhlich’s painting can be regarded as a new way of reassessing this discipline’s contributions over the decades yet filtered entirely through the gaze of the present.
