The exhibition focusses on the idea, the aesthetics and the process of painting presenting about a dozen works, most of them from the collection but rarely shown. The exhibits, however, are not necessarily paintings. The video piece „M. U. D.“ (2000) by Nina Könnemann (*1971) for example leads the viewer into a deserted park in the very early morning, a place that seems to be fallen out of time, an abstract surface, that suggests painterly qualities between composition and random occurence.
