Barré (Alexandra Reininghaus)

The constant search for redefinition and evaluation of its own capabilities has become natural for the medium of painting, and in a certain way even its survival elixir. Although throughout the course of history painting has been declared dead multiple times, it has, up to this day, not lost its special status. The break with a modern notion of painting has made its boundaries more fluid and open.
