Staub und Sterne
"Staub und Sterne (Dust and Stars)" is the first solo
exhibition of the Düsseldorf painter Andreas Korte
(born in 1969) at REIMANN LE BÈGUE. He studied at
the Düsseldorf academy of arts under Jan Dibbets
and Gerhard Merz.
The main focus of his oeuvre is based on the critical
questioning and the contemporary reassessment of
abstract art. Equally Andreas Korte works in different
media, the initial point is always to be found in the
idea of painting. Thematically his works concentrate
on signs detached from the physical item. These
signs are examined with painting in numerous layers,
are reconstructed in colour and presented in new
contexts. The viewer understands every single phase
of the painting process - different levels overlap and
open up new spatial and temporal
dimensions.
In the gallery large-size canvases will be shown, as
well as smaller works and paper work. During the last
years Andreas Korte has created a many-faceted and
relevant pictorial work which is taking a concise
position in the contemporary painting discourse.
