„Landschaften“ (Landscapes)

November 5th 2020 – January 16th 2021

In the current two-person exhibition janinebeangallery shows landscapes by Armin Völckers and Maxwell Dunlop. Both artists have mastered the genre in their respective ways by creating ambiences of peculiar gravity, spaces which narrate with suspense on the one hand and reveal a wide, calm timelessness on the other hand.
