Kombi

'Kombi' is the title of Bernard Piffaretti's fourth solo exhibition at Klemm's. The intellectual starting point is a playful yet distanced reflection on the once emblematic and still popular function of the ‘Kombi’ (Kombinationswagen) and the possibility offered through its multiple uses to discover the world. Piffaretti combines this concept both spatially and temporally over the course of the exhibition with the idea of a traditional “Cabinet of Curiosities”: his painterly repertoire can be explored by the viewer in a wide variety of ways - right down to the ‘iconographic’ margins of his canvases.
