Grau_Liste_25: Tekening / Zeichnung / Drawing

The drawing is considered the most immediate medium of artistic thinking. In its apparent fragility – applied as a thin graphite line, an ink-soaked trace or a precise outline – it unfolds a surprising potential to negotiate space and history. This exhibition is devoted to drawing not only as an autonomous work of art, but as a seismographic instrument that maps historical circumstances and spatial dimensions. At its focus is the question of how the drawn constitutes space. To depict a historical occurrence, the works draw on fragile lines and layers in order to make architecture, landscapes and urban memory physically palpable. The stroke becomes a vector of memory: it captures transient states, exposes archaeological layers and connects past epochs with the present. The positions presented show that drawing is an act of questioning. They make space and history experienceable not as static backdrops, but as fluid processes that are continuously re-measured and staged in the medium of the line.
