Inge Schmidts works are characterized by an extraordinary focus on material, form, and spatial presence. Without relying on superficial effects, she creates sculptures and objects whose impact stems from the precision of their composition and her sensitive handling of the respective materials. Each work reveals its own internal order and invites the viewer to engage with the subtle relationships between form, surface, line, and space.
The exhibition presents three contemporary artistic positions that understand painting not as representation but as process. Here, the surface appears not as a passive carrier but as a place where materiality, structure, and perception intertwine. Abstraction and figuration are not opposites, but different manifestations of a processual understanding of the concept of the painting.
