Eröffnung: Jeanette Mundt – PUBLIC AND BEYOND JUDGMENT

In the organizer's words:

With PUBLIC AND BEYOND JUDGMENT, the G2 Kunsthalle is presenting the first institutional solo exhibition by New York painter Jeanette Mundt (*1982, USA). For the exhibition, the artist will create a site-specific mural in addition to paintings. In her works, Mundt combines art-historical and pop-cultural references with personal elements, pursuing the aim of constantly reshaping the image. Thus, Mundt's work is not characterized by a uniformly developed style, but rather by a constantly realigning process of discovery that absorbs the collective flood of images like a resonating body, distorts them and creates something new. In this way, she makes it clear that one's own gaze is never constant and that both perception and its understanding are subject to constant change. In doing so, she sheds light on the genesis of images, from their creation, perception and shift in meaning through to deconstruction, thus illustrating the ambivalence of images between construction and reality.
