Galerie Marenzi: Barbara Höller
“generated by repetition”
The exhibition explores Barbara Höller's connection to the theme of repetition. Using various techniques (such as scanner exposures, videos, paintings and works on paper), the activity of production and the associated time span is thematized.

Repetition - which is usually understood as a linear process - appears in Barbara Höller's works as a multiplication factor: a simple mark on a surface is changed by means of an instruction. This process takes place several times in succession on one and the same picture surface. The result is a dense conglomerate of linear structures whose proximity to spatial systems is palpable. The principle of repetition in her works, which can be seen as a multiplication factor, also has a counterpart in the reproduction and duplication possibilities of photography.
