Birgit Megerle: Suite
The seven paintings presented at Galerie Emanuel Layr describe the poetics of Birgit Megerle as it converges into a new heterotopia: a going towards a painting that intimately interrogates the language of geometric abstraction, while challenging the specificity of the painted image.
The experiences of artists such as Sonia Delaunay, Lygia Clark and Robin Bruch, have obviously provided a paramount influence. The nature of these encounters is absolutely personal and derives from a genuine appreciation of the marvelous range of sensibility within the geometric schema. Megerle seems to look for an organic space where she can enter the painting, her ultimate pursuit perhaps being that of an artwork as 鈥渙bjectivit茅 subjective qui dirige les hommes vers la transparence鈥 鈥 quote is by Picabia, 1921, from an article that he wrote in defense of his Transparences series.
