In this captivating joint exhibition, artists Serena Amrein and Sascha Nordmeyer delve into the timeless interplay of black and white. Their thought-provoking works invite viewers to explore the nuances, contrasts, and harmonies found within this seemingly simple color palette. Visitors are encouraged to immerse themselves in this monochromatic dialogue—to see beyond the absence of color and discover the richness within.
Join us on an extraordinary journey into the creative mind of Robert Steng, a sculptor whose work transcends boundaries and challenges perception.
The title, ‘Alea Iacta Est’, means a point of no return. Similarly, Robert Steng's wooden sculptures invite us to cross the thresholds of form, materiality and imagination.
Surfaces coloured and tanned by sun and weather, the specificity of the grain and the beauty of the elements - reassembled by sawing and gluing, they create a spatial impression thanks to the diversity of colours and textures.
His mural compositions bring space to life, defying gravity and inviting contemplation.
Explore the fascinating world of geometric abstraction in the exhibition "Déclinaisons sur papier" .

Solo Show
"Jamais un jour sans tracer une ligne"
Driven by passionate and spirited curiosity, experimentation was her life. With tireless exploration, Vera Molnar (1924-2023) wanted to expand thinking and visual perception, always open to surprises, to new, unimaginable pictorial results. She revolutionised painterly vision. Her work was accompanied by a constant dialogue between emotion, method and a love of error, this liberating norm-breaker. She was a pioneer of computer art, with which she took random walks between order and disorder.
"Since I started working with computers, I've got to know myself much better,"
she said back in 1988 during what was probably her first solo exhibition in the city of Zurich. An encounter with the Hungarian-born artist, who had lived in her favourite city, Paris, since 1947, was inevitably enriching. Her distinctive sense of humour, her infectious smile and, above all, her humanity were literally infectious to get involved in her "delightful" world of shifts, distortions and displacements, which is now possible once again in the solo exhibition at Galerie La Ligne.
"Light and Shadow Play"
The two Austrian artists Hellmut Bruch (*1936) and Gerhard Frömel (*1941), close friends, have been on the trail of the expansion of perception for many decades, each in his own way. They often approach their search for the immaterial openness of forms and the opening of potential form developments in exhibitions together.
Their vocabulary is geometrically reduced, their approach highly precise, yet full of startling, irritating and downright magical surprises. Guided by cheerfulness in one case, and equipped with wit in the other, they both bring into visibility, with playful seriousness, buried universal as well as still unseen dimensions of a philosophically underpinned experience of the world. Bundled light and proportions are at the center of Hellmut Bruch's work, movement and (illusionary) perspectives alternate with precise displacements of staggered planes in Gerhard Frömel's: both operate in the pull of the infinite.
