TOBY ZIEGLER17 January – 22 February 2025
Opening: Friday, 17 January, 6 – 8pm
Galerie Max Hetzler is pleased to announce 'ESCAPISM', a solo exhibition of new works by Toby Ziegler, at Bleibtreustraße 45 in Berlin. This is the artist’s ninth solo exhibition with the gallery.
Memory and the passing of time have long been two of the central themes in Ziegler’s work. In his practice, the artist combines figurative and abstract elements, computer modelling and painting, careful planning and chance. In his preparatory modelling of the images on the computer, a process which he describes as both alienating and mathematical, Ziegler builds non-narrative scenes. He creates a sense of stillness within his compositions, comparable to Dutch Old Master paintings, or the work of Giorgio Morandi and Vilhelm Hammershøi, where the experience of a long stretch of time is compressed into a single image.
