Rhythm Section consists of artists from various disciplines who explicitly and consciously deal with the theme of rhythm in their work. The core that unites the group is the commitment to a hyper-reflexivity in dealing with rhythm, not as a constraint but as an original constant. The exchange and dynamics that arise from the different approaches and media provide new approaches to art and its practice.

 

The exhibition 1 5 2 3 8 provides for the first time a retrospective overview of the various activities of the group, which has been working together since 2010. In addition to the exhibition, there will be a side programme of workshops, performances and artist talks. In cooperation with Villa Waldberta (Feldafing), members of the group from China are invited to an artist residency.

Now in its eighth consecutive year, Platforms Project is the international show that indicatively charts the art currently produced through collective initiatives by young artists on the international scene as they join forces to seek answers to contemporary artistic questions.

Platforms Project establishes a new approach to art viewing via Platforms Project Net, a web-based art fair.

 

The Platforms Project Net will enable the art-loving public to access the artists’ groups and their works via a digital exhibition. Viewers can try a new experience by visiting the Platforms Project website for 15 days, from 14 to 31 May 2020.

De Stijl & Rhythm Section

Wedge IX, 2014-2015, 68x47x32 cm

Wedge IX, 2014–2015, 68x47x32 cm

The groundbreaking Dutch artistic movement known as De Stijl was founded in 1917. The most famous representatives of De Stijl were Piet Mondrian and Theo van Doesburg. In 2017 the Netherlands commemorated De Stijl’s centennial with dozens of exhibitions.

Rhythm Section wants to continue to celebrate the birth of De Stijl. The title of this exhibition at Karin Wimmer Contemporary Art in Munich refers to Mondrian’s famous paintings Broadway Boogie Woogie and Victory Boogie Woogie. In this exhibition we focus on the networking and exchange between contemporary artists who are concerned with the De Stijl movement.

This exhibition is supported by Kastner AG, Wolznach; Landeshauptstadt München; Tijl Fonds voor de beeldende kunst, Amsterdam; Dr Wies van Moorsel, Amsterdam; and Reuten Galerie, Amsterdam. The exhibition takes place in cooperation with Reuten Galerie, Amsterdam.
