The Galerie Rüdiger Schöttle is pleased to present the group exhibition "Breaking the walls, Dino appears", curated by Leiko Ikemura. This interdisciplinary exhibition brings together visual artists and architects who share similar impulses in finding or creating a poetic approach to the world. Historically, art and architecture were interconnected during the Renaissance, but over centuries, they have become distinct disciplines amidst an increasingly complex and specialized world. Despite their divergence, they share many commonalities. Leiko Ikemura highlights a significant parallel in their processual nature. In the moment of idea formation and creative creation, what is still in development continuously reconfigures itself: "Art has no other function than to be art. However, in relation to architecture, it becomes part of a manifestation. In its processuality, architecture is artistically involved in the sense that it is liberated from its function. When ideas dream, that is the moment of beauty and openness. Finished buildings often obscure this process." With this exhibition, Ikemura offers a perspective that moves away from an anthropocentric foundation toward a cosmological, holistic viewpoint, approaching the archaic nature of creative processes.

Philipp von Matt's contribution to the spatial design connects the complexity of individual works and skillfully guides the visitors' gaze through minimal changes, elastically shaping materiality and dimension.

The exhibition features works by Lina Bo Bardi, Martin Creed, Rudolf Finisterre, Günther Förg, Dan Graham, Leiko Ikemura, Tomie Ohtake, Thomas Ruff, Thomas Schütte, Álvaro Siza, Thomas Struth, Philipp von Matt, and Chen Wei.
