Hans Aichinger - "Schwerkraft und Zeit"
In the organizer's words:
Hans Aichinger's works (painting, oil on canvas) demand concentration: that of the painter to be able to create the highly accurate figures on the canvas. That of the viewer, who has to follow the gazes, gestures and relationships of the figures with rapt attention. What the painted, mostly youthful protagonists focus on remains outside the picture frame, without reference, in the open. Aichinger's figures are role-players on a minimalist stage, not portraits; they are predominantly soloists without concrete counterparts - but they are occupied with counter-stances, or counter-stances: a wooden stick, stuffed animals, pebbles, toys or, even more reduced, with a physical gesture - as an expression of inner compression. These detail-obsessed, almost microscopically alienating elements have no superficial meaning, but they direct perception. In this way, abstraction enters the work in a roundabout way. Aichinger comes surprisingly close to his inclination towards non-representational, idealistic images - albeit from an unexpected direction. Hans Aichinger's paintings are not often seen in his home town. The exhibition "Gravity and Time" offers one of the rare opportunities to take a closer look at his painterly productions.
