A poetic conclusion for an exhibition between painting and photography
With the finissage of Exhibition No 3 in the Dye House, an exhibition comes to an end in Bielefeld that brought monochrome painting and photographic close-ups into a quiet but intense dialogue. Works by Andreas Parnow and Christina Augel will be shown, whose different visual languages condense into a focused exhibition atmosphere.
Painting in the series Jazz: Rhythm, Surface, Density
Andreas Parnow's works from the series Jazz operate in the field of lyrical abstraction and informal painting. Monochrome picture surfaces, subtle tones, and a reduced formal language create a viewing experience that focuses less on the obvious motif and more on layers, gestures, and spatial effects. Those who engage with this painting experience a remarkable sense of stillness and inner tension.
Photography as Proximity: Devotion in Focus
Christina Augel's close-ups under the motto Devotion draw attention to details, surfaces, and transitions. Her photographs unfold a visual poetry reminiscent of painterly compositions and consciously keep the boundary between documentary perception and aesthetic experience open. Especially in conjunction with Parnow's abstract painting, a productive contrast arises from concentration and openness.
The Dye House as Studio Gallery
The studio gallery at Bleichstraße 64 is not a distant white cube but a place of immediate encounter with art. The location in Bielefeld-Mitte, the personal atmosphere, and the possibility for conversation give the finissage an almost studio-like character. Art mediation happens here not in a tone of distance, but in direct exchange between artists and the audience.
Finissage with Discussion and Insight Behind the Creation of the Works
On Tuesday, July 28, 2026, at 6 PM, the finissage offers the opportunity to experience the exhibition calmly one last time. The visit provides insights into artistic processes, material decisions, and the curatorial idea behind this juxtaposition of painting and photography. Those who take advantage of the evening will not only take home images but also a more precise understanding of contemporary art in this small, concentrated format.
Conclusion
Exhibition No 3 in the Dye House promises an impressive art experience between abstract painting and photographic intimacy as a closing event. The finissage invites participants to see the works again with fresh eyes and to experience the special exhibition atmosphere live. A visit is worthwhile for all who wish to not only view art but absorb it with all their senses.
