21 March - 15 June 2019, opening 17:00 - 21:00 Nikolaus Gansterer, solo show, at Drawing Lab Paris, France. In his artistic and performative practice, Nikolaus Gansterer applies an expanded and open notion of drawing based on his understanding of thinking and drawing being analogous processes. He is thus concerned with the fundamental question of how to translate and visualise thought processes, both conscious and subconscious. Presenting several new and on-site works next to existing ones, Gansterer's innovative methods such as ad hoc notations, self-reporting, or space-body diagrams are explored and together cast a fresh light on drawing, namely as a tool for thinking in action. During the process of developing and installing the new work for his solo exhibition Nikolaus Gansterer will be artist in residence at Cité Internationale des Arts. Curated by Jeanette Pacher.
