Press Release

/
Galerie Gilla Lörcher | Contemporary Art is very pleased to present the solo exhibition of Claudia Desgranges during the Berlin Art Week and the Gallery Weekend Berlin 2020. Both art events will take place this year in the week of 09.09.-13.09.2020.
The exhibition by Cologne-based painter Claudia Desgranges is the third part of the "Female Contemporary Abstract Painters" series at Galerie Gilla Lörcher. The series started with Ivana Klickovic from Berlin (17.01. – 28.02.2020) and followed by Simone Strasser from Munich (14.03. - 13.06.2020).
Claudia Desgranges says about her artistic work, which refers to an examination of abstract modernism, minimalism, abstract expressionism and color field painting: "It is my goal to achieve freedom in painting, to go beyond conventions, to initiate new viewing habits ... We are exposed to so many media, everything is going faster and faster, a lot at the same time. I respond to this with the slow medium of painting ... The goal is not to sink into a picture, the eye should wander around."

Claudia Desgranges (born 1953 in Frankfurt) lives and works in Cologne and Munich. Desgranges studied painting at Kunstakademie Düsseldorf. She has received several grants and honours including Kunstfonds Bonn (1988), Sparkassenstiftung Bonn (1998), Pollock - Krasner Foundation, New York (2014), Erwin and Gisela Steiner Stiftung Munich (1917).
Her work has been shown among others at: Rheinisches Landesmuseum, Bonn; Clemens-Sels-Museum, Neuss; Museum am Ostwall, Dortmund; Raum Schroth, Wilhelm Morgener Museum, Soest; Kunsthalle Recklinghausen; Kunstmuseum Heidenheim; Kunstmuseum Celle; Bielefelder Kunstverein; Heidelberger Kunstverein; Kunstverein Mönchengladbach; Kunsthalle Ziegelhütte, Appenzell (CH); Kunstverein Würzburg; Kunstverein Leverkusen Schloß Morsbroich; Mies-van-der-Rohe-Haus Berlin.
