until 14.06. | #3892ARTatBerlin | Galerie Dittmar presents from 27. April 2023 the solo exhibition „Pläne machen“ (<Make plans) with works of the artist Nanne Meyer.
“For about 20 years Nanne Meyer has been working with maps, atlas pages and city plans. In their function, meaning, and aesthetics, they form the foundation for the question of one’s own orientation in the world … The artist frees cartography, consisting of surfaces, lines, colors, signatures, and symbols, from its interpretation of content … Depending on the state of science and on political as well as social interests, maps of the country and the world have always been an attempt to grasp, explain, and divide the world order.” (Barbara Nierhoff-Wielk, in: Meyers Handatlas. Nanne Meyer in the Liebermann Studio, Walther König, Cologne 2018, unpag.)
“Drawing is thereby coupled for her to a living process of seeing, experiencing and reflecting on experienced or imagined realities, which is reflected in thematically related groups of works. Thereby, at least indirectly, it is always also about the questioning and illustration of the ‘pictorial’ possibilities of drawing itself.” (Andreas Schalhorn, in: The More I Draw – Drawing as World Design, Museum für Gegenwartskunst Siegen, DuMont, Cologne 2010, p. 86)
