HP8 studio artists show their work

In January and February 2025, you can view works by Sybille Rath on the Exhibition Wall in Hall E.

 

Sybille Rath’s paintings are characterised by different spheres and a focus on process. Simplicity within complexity; a condensed narrative that focusses on the essence; figure and fragment; the unfinished and the unfinishable (Herbert von Einem), surfaces of colour and blank space; but above all movement and standstill: Those are the concepts that find their expression through gesture and material in Rath’s art.
