EXHIBITION OPENING: ALEX KIESSLING – PARADIGMS
PARADIGMS – a solo exhibition by Alex Kiessling
Paradigms are often depicted as “basic ways of thinking”. Principles, that have burned themselves into the subconscious as patterns. Once in there, these patterns have a massive impact on human actions. They accompany us in everyday life as well as in exceptional situations. Their power is tremendous.
In his solo-exhibition Paradigms, Alex Kiessling invites us to take a closer look at ourselves – in order to fathom these patterns. Breaking with a set of Do’s and Don’ts, that are equally distributed in our educational system, Alex Kiessling takes us on a journey through different approaches in figurative drawing and graphics. He invites us to join his artistic playground. On view is a selection of illustrations and (very limited edition) prints, blurring the line between the Do and the Don’t. Every art work is hand-colored and an absolute unicum.
“The inner, playing child is bored to death if it permanently copies itself.”
