With ABOVE AND BELOW THE THREE WORLDS, Galerie Thomas Schulte is presenting a comprehensive solo exhibition of works on paper, frottages and objects by Matt Mullican. Works are presented in which familiar systems for organizing and presenting information and knowledge become visible, including diagrams, models and pinboards, which Mullican combines with specially developed, idiosyncratic systems of order. These form the core of his artistic practice. The consistent use of primary colors and elementary forms such as the circle characterize the works, whose initial legibility proves to be multi-layered and complex upon closer inspection.
Since the 1970s, Mullican has developed a comprehensive cosmology as well as his own system of signs and symbols that serve to structure reality. In the exhibition, early works on paper enter into a dialogue with current frottages, through which both the continuity and the progressive elaboration of a reality that is organized across several levels can be experienced. This reality appears both condensed and expansive, deeply personal and yet with universal aspirations
