The works of Cologne-based artist Bastian Hoffmann (*1983) play ambiguously with the everyday. His works often combine contradictory aspects and opposites: walls with a dynamic life of their own, puddles that are planned and not created by chance, paper on which fleeting performances are made durable. Each of Hoffmann's works breaks with conventional ideas and expectations. With stoic seriousness and humour, Hoffmann observes the world and the things around him and questions the supposed regularities.

The exhibition shows video installations, material images and objects that are the inevitable result of a destructive artistic process.

Opening on Friday, 12 April at 19:00, Galerie der feinkunst e.V., Roscherstrasse 5, 30161 Hanover.

The Dr. Christiane Hackerodt Art Foundation is sponsoring the catalogue of the exhibition.
