We are delighted to present the first solo exhibition of Carolina Pérez Pallares at Gallery b2_. Throughout her artistic practice, Carolina Pérez Pallares constantly re-examines both the general and her personal conception of painting. Here, the painting is liberated from the canvas and understood as a culturally shaped process that is composed of a wide variety of components. In the exhibition „Die Farbe teilt ihre ungerecht Haltung“ („The color shares its unjust attitude“) these components are examined in five works. The material, e.g. the image carrier, binder and pigments, are just as much the focus of attention as production aspects, e.g. artistic trace or role and self-images of the artist, or reception aspects such as the social understanding of painting and the relationship of painting to other disciplines of the fine arts. Through a consistently straight formal language, Carolina Pérez Pallares thus succeeds in reflecting and sensitively presenting the contemporary concept of painting.
