press release

The exhibition project “Scape“ presents itself as a kind of promenade in which the invited artists return to the secular notion of landscape. For the presented artists - over and above a diversity of thought and practice (drawing, photography, video, installation) - landscape remains a pretext for escaping into respective dream worlds. Whether the landscapes are from imagination or dreams, whether they are sensual or ironic, all of them allow free rein to the spectator’s own imagination. By using the conventions of landscape, the works offer the possibility of an experience somewhere between supposed reality and actual fiction. Further they clearly situate themselves in the ambiguity that exists between notions of „landscape and escape“.
