“Karen Irmer’s works are thematically committed to landscape photography, while Esther Hagenmaier’s photographs show details of architecture. Nature and culture – as different as the works of the two artists are in terms of subject matter, the artistic intention behind them is similar. Neither Esther Hagenmaier nor Karen Irmer are interested in depicting reality. For them, external reality is rather the occasion for a preoccupation with perception. By overcoming visual conventions in their works, the artists open up new visual experiences and a more sensitive perception of ambiguities. Reality and illusion can no longer be clearly separated in the works. With their reduced formal language, Karen Irmer’s and Esther Hagenmaier’s works fit perfectly into the minimalist architecture of Atelier Wild.”

PaintingPhotography examines artistic concepts at the intersection of photography and painting. The blending and overlapping of the two spheres has long since generated transitions that are superficially barely perceptible, and not only on a technical level. The visual portfolios of artistic pictorial invention are increasingly dissolving categorizations based on classical standards in favor of new image forms, in which theoretical reflection, poetry, and new associative spaces are in the process of being created. Dissolution as well as expansion are equally poles that capture and develop the intertwining of photographic and painterly images to a greater extent.
Twelve artists from France, Great Britain, Israel, Germany and the USA present ‘pure’ as well as cross-media works of art from photography, painting and video.

Karen Irmer – dauerhaft flüchtig
15.09.2021.- 7.11.2021
Opening: 14:09.
7 pm
In 2020, the scholarship for artistic photography and electronic media, which is offered annually by the Province of Carinthia in cooperation with the Department of Culture Klagenfurt, went to the German media artist Karen Irmer. Due to Corona, the 5-month working stay in the painter’s studio of the city of Klagenfurt took place only this year.
“My works have no identifiable space or place. If you cannot clearly assign and recognize the things you see, what are you looking at? You observe yourself seeing. Seeing itself becomes the object of observation.”
The artist also devoted herself to the play with perception during her stay in Carinthia. The reflection of one’s own viewing continues to be an integral part of her artistic strategy. In the exhibition, a video work in which only the smallest movements take place is juxtaposed with large-format photographic prints. Depending on the incidence of light, these show a different contrast, which further intensifies the inherent mystical quality.
In this way, it is not the individual appearance as such, but the atmospheric situation that becomes the motif. The result is photographs of poetic beauty that, with their implied ambiguity, do not always allow the viewer to clearly determine their location.
