Gregg Stanger constructs monochromatic landscapes using simple construction materials and a single light source.Angelika Rinnhofer locates through portraiture the cool emptiness of a white death performed in the icy landscapes of Central Park Katherine Merlo uses natural pigment and shadow to eat away the brilliance of new fallen snow.Vilem Reichmann finds ragged limbs forming in dead weeds in his surrealist interpretations of winter landscape Florence Poulain documents performance artist Jessie Gayle as she crawls, burrows and hangs in a climate-induced intensity. Bodo Korsig locates abstraction in fence lines buried in deep snow in the Black Forest of Berlin Astrid Nippoldt enters an irrational world of a horse race caught in a hallucinogenic whiteness of stadium lights and a blizzard David Winston constructs long, white inflatable light sculpture that generate an ambient light source that can also be hugged and rubbed.
