Thomas Helbig
Anciens Régimes
11 March – 19 April 2025
Opening: Friday, 7 March 2025, 6 – 8 pm
Galerie Guido W. Baudach is pleased to present its tenth solo exhibition of works by Thomas Helbig (*1967). Under the title Anciens Régimes, the Berlin-based artist is showing new paintings and wall objects.
"One might be tempted to see Thomas Helbig's paintings and sculptures as an expression of a dichotomous world view between order and chaos, good and evil. However, this would not only be too short-sighted, but also a misunderstanding, as Helbig's artistic practice is by no means associated with a morality of either/or. Instead of following corresponding guidelines, i.e. regimes, his works resist any reduction of their context. At the same time, in their characteristic amalgam of formal and thematic fragments from art and cultural history, they reveal their very own poetry of specific pictorial power." – Cora Waschke
