Spaces

Each of Erich Lindenberg’s small spatial pictures seems very reduced, very straightforward, almost simple. If one asks oneself what their theme is, the question becomes complex. If one starts from the assumption that the works deal with concepts of space, then one underestimates their coloration. If one concentrates on the construction of space, then one fails to notice space as content. One almost automatically begins asking fundamental artistic questions. What join up here are nearly textbook-like features and the gesture of the existential. These pictures appear to be the expression of an ongoing learning process. The abstract issues always lead away from the individual picture. An intellectual approach creates a tension that causes the viewer to return to the picture.
 
Should they be contemplated individually or together? Do they comprise a single work, or are they a series comprised of individual works?
