Herbert Warmuth – Farbige Interventionen
In the organizer's words:
Herbert Warmuth has given five windows in the MiK fresh color and new perspectives. The starting point in each case is individual medicine packaging. The Frankfurt artist explores the possibilities and limits of painting.
Recently, the otherwise rather inconspicuous white reveals of the arched windows on the first floor of the Museum im Kulturspeicher(MiK) in Würzburg have captured the attention of visitors with their surprisingly colorful frames. A broad orange stripe running all the way around, a deep blue colored base area or the blackwashed arch in another window - artist Herbert Warmuth uses these to draw the eye to the views to the outside and create a surprisingly different perception of the space. Sometimes it is only on second glance that it becomes apparent that the color scheme is not chosen at random.
The starting point for the coloring is always empty medicine boxes, which are glued into five of the windows on the Main side of the Kulturspeicher and whose color design is continued in the reveals. By placing them between two panes of glass, the installations appear to be presented in a display case; at the same time, however, the view opens up to the outside - thus the color design enters into a dialogue with the world outside the museum.
