Rachel von Morgenstern
Cruel Fruits 9 Mar - 20 Apr 2024 We are delighted to present the exhibition Cruel Fruits by Rachel von Morgenstern which is her first solo show in Leipzig. After a first appearance in our group show TAYT in 2023, which explored and juxtaposed four different abstract and non-figurative painterly positions, Rachel von Morgenstern now presents most recent paintings and scultpures from her studio.
Creating delicate and intricate non-figurative compositions on polyester, which appear free, momentary and levitated, can be described as Rachel von Morgenstern's signature style. Her latest compositions invoke a strong sense of spring with new compositions in which the colorful elements not only float and move but appear in utmost tenderness. Some paintings bring the joy of blossoming, others a playful musicality to mind. We invite you to make your very personal associations in this exhibition of abstract paintings and sculpture.
The show runs from March 9, 2024 through April 20, 2024. Read more -

Paul Glaw
DOUBLE EXPOSURE 8 Jun - 22 Jul 2023 We are excited to present the new solo show DOUBLE EXPOSURE by Paul Glaw which opened on June 8, 2023 and is on view until July 22, 2023. In his previous solo show in Leipzig, Glaw spotlighted masculinity and aggression in the 1990s and early 2000s in East Germany. With his new exhibition Paul Glaw presents new paintings, sculptures, and installations to touch the fall, crisis and victimization as a social and cultural phenomenon. Paul Glaw’s artistic work is characterized by a distinctive visual languages of a unique chromatic approach in blue and orange and figurative compositions of both painterly and drawn dimensions. He creates attributes and symbols that form an iconogrophy of its own, for which he fuses symbols and aesthetics from Socialist realism with open, cartoonish and expressive figurative styles. His works explore different forms of collective memory of the years since 1990. They depict the ambivalence of this time and its protagonists as they address anxiety and sorrow, the loss of social institutions, lethargy and violence, structural changes and the rupture in individual as well as collective perspectives towards themselves and the future.

Katrin Brause
Speranza 22 Apr - 27 May 2023 Katrin Brause is a notable representative of the New Leipzig School. She studied at the Leipzig academy of fine art HGB with Arno Rink and Neo Rauch. Her solo exhibition ›Speranza‹ brings together 19 works whose spatial and aesthetic context is once again the city of Catania in Sicily. From this social-cultural space, Katrin Brause transfers everyday objects as well as arrangements found in the streets — especially the role of faith in people's everyday lives — into contemporary painting. In doing so, Brause creates exceedingly present and multi-layered still lifes, which in turn function as profound allegories of human biographies, human ideas, human thought and action. The objects depicted, such as weathered chairs or used fruit crates, as well as their sceneries, appear banal at first, while their transformation into painting creates thoroughly ambivalent statements.

Johannes Listewnik
Hard Days, Night 14 Jan - 25 Feb 2023 In his exhibition Hard Days, Night, Johannes Listewnik presents a series of new works created in 2022. In his artistic work, Johannes Listewnik transfers reflection processes, which are usually captured in written language, into visual language. He gives space to his own thinking in painted and diversely crafted images. Starting from an object of investigation - be it floral still lifes or other forms of everyday and working poetics - he develops pictures with a pronounced dwelling character, which can be read as information containers for reflections on the object itself, on its art-historical contexts and on its present reproductions in painting. A graphic imagery, handwritten as well as painterly interventions, printing and reproduction techniques, and the embedding of foreign sources take on various roles, whose interpretation and reading by the viewer result in an open and fascinating interplay.

Claudia Piepenbrock
Tilt, Outlines Our Motion 19 Nov - 23 Dec 2022 In unserer jahresabschließenden Ausstellung nimmt sich Claudia Piepenbrock in einer Einzelausstellung den Räumen der Galerie an, um diese mit ihren Arbeiten um neue Perspektiven zu erweitern. Die Beziehung zwischen Körper und Raum, im Schaffen der Bildhauerin ein zentrales Thema, wird dabei immer wieder neu verhandelt, Raumgrenzen werden von manchen Arbeiten beschrieben, von anderen in ihrer Körperlichkeit verschoben.
Die künstlerische Praxis der Bildhauerin umfasst das Erschaffen von raumgreifenden Arbeiten im Innen- und Außenraum. Viele der Werke ihrer Ausstellung »Tilt, Outlines Our Motion« vermitteln Einblicke in ihre Art und Weise über Raum, Raumgrenzen, Verhaltensformen, Milieus, sowie Form und Körper an sich nachzudenken. Die konzeptuell fein justierten Werke Piepenbrocks fordern eine aktive Teilhabe des Publikums ein: um sich ihren Arbeiten zu nähren, lohnt sich ein Perspektivwechsel. Viele der ausgestellten Objekte sind wie Grundrisse aus der Luft zu betrachten, andere drängen sich in ihrer Körperlichkeit, Masse und Materialität in den tatsächlichen Raum. Read more -
Mateusz von Motz
Fuck Normal I Want Magic 17 Sep - 5 Nov 2022 For this year's autumn tour of the Spinnerei Galleries in Leipzig Mateusz von Motz presents new works in a solo exhibition, which refers in form and content primarily to his titular, already iconic work series Fuck Normal I Want Magic from 2021. Back then, in this series he used for the first time a mirror as an image carrier (and pictorial space), on which that phrase, spray painted on the mirror, merged into an exciting pointed and multidimensional statement. In addition to new mirror works, von Motz adds sculptures and neon works from his oeuvre, which will reflect the diversity of artistic expression in the artist's work and deepen the show’s thematic starting point around the topic of Self Care.
Von Motz expresses himself in a variety of media, from painting to sculpture, object art to installation. Essential for him is to have a reference to the image carrier or object on which he acts upon. Already iconic are his mirror works, for which he combines text and image on mirrors. A strategy that refers, among other cultural backgrounds and phenomena, to the digital meme culture, which in turn ties in with the popular genres and visual strategies of the poster, the comic, and advertising. In his work, the artist mixes the communication strategy of direct address intermedially with the mirror as a pictorial space into which the viewer enters, in which reality and virtuality blur together, and the subject is thrown back onto intimate, psychological levels of self-observation. The moment of introspection and that of transformation appear in a multidimensionality: Freudian (self)questioning appears as well as a re-actualization of mythological narratives such as that of Narcissus, with von Motz's works providing an ironic as well as empathic commentary on a narcissistic society. This society is mirrored here in its collective numbing in the representations within social media. In this sense, von Motz ultimately confronts visitors with the choice of remaining in the dream world controlled by machines or being freed from the simulation. Self Care appears - quite in the ancient tradition - as a complex theme: as a social paradigm, a call to self-care, an everyday life experience and a critical analysis in equal measure.
