Galerie Max Hetzler, Berlin, presents a solo exhibition of works on paper and paintings on acrylic glass by Albert Oehlen. Spanning more than a decade, the exhibition features monochromatic works from Oehlen’s ‘Computerbilder’ and ‘Conduction’ series. In the ‘Computerbilder’, first created between 1991–2008 and revisited by the artist from 2024–, Oehlen foregrounds computer-generated imagery, merging printing, painting and collage in a symbiosis of digital and analogue, human and machine. By contrast the ‘Conduction’ works, initiated in 2009, are executed entirely by hand and distinguished for their geometric patterns, meandering lines and organic forms. Inspired by musical improvisation, Oehlen’s rhythmic, looping forms trace pathways which lead the viewer’s eye across the compositions in a lyrical dance. The series is further extended with a new body of work from 2024, composed in oil and lacquer on acrylic glass.
