David Ostrowski: It can鈥檛 be that cold
David Ostrowski鈥檚 first solo exhibition at the Berlin gallery, So kalt kann es nicht sein / It can鈥檛 be that cold, features a new body of work that marks his first systematic approach to the color gray. Known for his minimalistic, abstract canvases in white or black, the gray paintings represent a new chapter in his artistic oeuvre. In using another 鈥渘on-color鈥濃�攊n this case, a conventional, commercially-available 鈥渘eutral gray鈥� hue鈥擮strowski continues his exploration of a total reduction in painting and a deliberate break with painterly codes and traditions. The new works assume a painterly, sensual, complex quality that is heightened by their small format. Despite their size, they have a significant presence and room-encompassing effect鈥攃haracteristics enhanced by a gallery presentation that allows for the paintings to become a constitutive part of the space.
