Catalogue Note

“One thing is certain: the paintings of Adrian Ghenie do not allude to a world beyond (a window into another reality) but are about the world within, about the monad and the personal emotions of an inflected consciousness” (Adrian Ghenie in conversation with Magda Radu, in: Exh. Cat., Venice, Romanian Pavilion, Biennale de Venezia, Adrian Ghenie: Darwin’s Room, 2015, pp. 82-83).
