The exhibition VIERMALVIER / FOURTIMESFOUR takes up the various levels of meaning of the four associatively and, after DIE ABSURDE SCHÖNHEIT DES RAUMES (2020) and OUT OF SPACE (2021), once again takes the architecture of the Galerie der Gegenwart created by Oswald Mathias Ungers with its special spatial conditions as the starting point for a curatorial consideration. What does the series of four suggest in art and what forms can the preoccupation with the four take, especially in a place that is unmistakably based on the four in the form of the square? The exhibition VIERMALVIER / FOURTIMESFOUR, comprising 18 positions (read right: eighteen!), is deliberately associative, arithmetically incorrect, incomplete and rule-breaking.
