ADRIAN BUSCHMANN
Weekend in office
28 June - 7 September 2019
weekends in the office.
weekends in the studio.
taking a holiday from the own art.
taking a holiday from studying other artists.
working at weekends, weekends at work.
In recent exhibitions at Gabriele Senn Galerie I have primarily been involved with studying other artists such as Picabia, Chwistek and Kandinsky. Those interactions were used as a holiday / weekend that helped me to gain a certain detachment and to overcome the fear of copying oneself, becoming a caricature of oneself.
The collaboration with Backhausen, a traditional weaving company, is the result of seeking a solution with relation to the repetitive character of the own work. Their fabrics are highly recognizable, yet no product of a repetition, but solely a recapitulation of the own monogram. Therefore, the canvas, the surface, the material becomes its own trademark. The fabrics are simultaneously readymade and raw material that can be expanded towards any direction.
The portraits, on the other hand, force me to follow specific norms of painting. In this way the quality of my work becomes verifiable to a certain extent.
In the current exhibition I prolong and expand this vacation by devoting myself to my own work once more and by showing paintings that I have worked on in the past two years.
