PETER ZIMMERMANN

Capas de gelatina

24th Marcho - 28th of May 2006

CAC Málaga presents the first solo exhibition in Spain by Peter Zimmermann. The show features some 20 paintings produced by this German artist, using epoxy resin coupled with digital processing, which defines these works to a large extent. Layers of Gelatine features recent works that combine intense colour, psychedelic forms and synthetic textures. The exhibition occupies Space 2 at the art centre.

A score of paintings, some of them in large format, fill the central exhibition space at CAC Málaga with a multitude of colours and gelatinous textures. In his first solo exhibition in Spain, Peter Zimmermann presents his latest creations, paintings on canvas whose lively colours and labyrinthine forms cannot fail to surprise the visitor. The original inspiration behind each picture comes from different graphic documents, some by Zimmerman himself, others from different sources.

The artist then manipulates these images to create the desired effect, using original and innovative methods to imbue the resulting works with enormous power, achieving spectacular aesthetic results. Zimmerman uses digital media to generate forms, after which he uses epoxy resin to give them material shape. This resin is a material that evokes artificiality due to the synthetic, gelatinous textures it produces, adding layer upon layer of multi-coloured paint, giving the impression that these works have been created using a technique that has still to be invented. "It is the desire to free himself from the oppressions of eternal intermediation and dependence on context", explains the art critic Stephan Berg in his article for the exhibition catalogue.

Layers of Gelatine is imbued with minimalist nuances due to the artist's search for synthesis, and by an abstract touch provided by his use of psychedelic forms and colours. Some critics, moreover, catalogue his work as abstract expressionism.

Museo Picasso Malaga 'The Picassos from Antibes'

Temporary exhibitions:
The Picassos from Antibes13 March - 11 June 2006

When in 1946 Picasso received the offer to use one of the great rooms in the castle at Antibes as a studio, he exclaimed enthusiastically: "I'm not only going to paint, I'll decorate the museum too". The result was a series of paintings and drawings - on rather unusual supports due to the shortage of materials in the post-World War Two period - that reflected the jubilant spirit, the joie de vivre.
The Picassos from Antibes is an exhibition never before seen in Spain, comprising a great selection of the most outstanding works from the museum collection, a large number of works having never been shown beyond the museum’s walls. These include the murals Joie de Vivre (The Joy of Life) or Antipolis (1946), The Sea Urchin Eater (1946) and the impressive sculpture Head of Woman with Chignon (1932). In all, 73 works, featuring paintings, drawings, sculptures and ceramics that serve to illustrate a splendid period in Picasso's artistic career, and which will be presented to the Spanish public at the Museo Picasso Málaga.
