until 04.05. | #4648ARTatBerlin | REITER shows from Thursday, 1 May 2025, the group exhibition BACK TO BACK TO BACK by the artists Christian Holze, Anselm Reyle and Márton Nemes.
In the exhibition BACK TO BACK TO BACK, REITER is simultaneously showing three artistic positions from Germany and Hungary in Berlin and Leipzig that deal with current issues in painting. Christian Holze, Anselm Reyle and Márton Nemes deal with image format, materiality and media transitions in different ways and refer to classical genres. Their works are shown in a spatial relationship to each other: back to back, image to image.
A concept of an ‘aesthetically hallucinated reality’ described by Jean Baudrillard is thematised here in a combination of painting, sculpture and installation. The transitions between the media and between subject and object, physical and virtual world are taken up in the works. The artists’ visual languages and visual systems thematise perception and refer to art historical and contemporary issues. Aspects such as the use of materials and conceptual references are emphasised.
A connecting element between the two exhibitions is a specially composed soundtrack by Péter Hencz, based on the artists’ favourite songs. The soundscape of techno, metal and noise as well as acoustic passages acoustically accompanies the exhibition. The release on vinyl is part of the exhibition concept and refers to the idea of the A and B sides of an album.
