The Search for Light: Egbert Krause-Wessel's Fascinating Image Worlds
In the Torhaus Gallery Göttingen, Egbert Krause-Wessel opens up a view of art that unfolds its own poetic tension in the interplay of light, structure, and material. The exhibition The Search for Light showcases a selection of his works since 1980 and invites viewers to look behind the visible surface.
Between Glaze, Silk, and Gold Leaf
The works are primarily created using resin oil glaze technique on cardboard, silk, and gold leaf. Layer by layer, image spaces develop where light not only illuminates but also becomes an artistic object in itself. Transparency, depth, and a finely tuned material effect shape the exhibition experience.
Fantastic Formations and Extraordinary Structures
Egbert Krause-Wessel focuses his attention on appearances that reveal more than the superficially visible. Fantastic formations and extraordinary structures transform the gallery spaces into a quiet perception laboratory. The dramaturgy of the exhibition follows no linear narrative arc but rather an open movement between recognition, irritation, and inner afterimage.
A Concentrated Stage Experience for the Eyes
The Torhaus becomes an atmospheric resonance space for painting and drawing. Here, instead of theatrical performance and direction, the visual composition determines the rhythm: light moods, surfaces, and the understated presence of the works guide the audience's reaction. Those who take their time will experience an exhibition that begins quietly and lingers long after.
Conclusion: Art as a Search for the Invisible
The Search for Light promises a concentrated art experience between painting, drawing, and material experimentation. Visitors encounter works that slow down perception and sharpen the eye for nuances. Experiencing the exhibition live means to not only see light but to feel it as a moving force of art.
