Catalogue Note
I don't just want to take something up and present it as an available form. I deal with it (appropriating historical styles) more like objets trouvés that I come across because they fascinate me and then I intensify this fascination, and so want to show it. And I'm partly interested in styles as well because they are so well-worn, as in the case of the stripe paintings.
It's such a simple principle, every art student must have used it at some time. And you're usually told that it's over and done with, that it was around in the '60s and wasn't even new then. And in the '90s stripe paintings were taken up again, ironically, by people like Heimo Zobernig. But the irony isn't the only thing I find interesting about it. Anselm Reyle
