Annabell Häfner: The Void of Now
“The Void of Now” is German painter Annabell Häfner's second solo exhibition at Galerie Rüdiger Schöttle. In poetic dreamscapes, the artist explores the relationship between anthropogenic infrastructure and nature. Abstract landscapes already suggested in her previous works have become increasingly concrete. Through placement and omission, mountain ranges and cloud formations take on greater significance. Inspired by stories of her childhood (such as those of the Siebengebirge, the seven-hill region of northern Germany said to have been created by seven giants on the banks of the Rhine), Häfner explores myths and legends.
