CONTEMPORARY ART IN MALLORCA
CONTEMPORARY ART IN MALLORCA
La Bibi + Reus will hold a double opening next Friday March 21 and Saturday March 22 that marks
the beginning of a new artistic cycle, being the first project carried out in Mallorca since the recent
fusion. Within the framework of Art Palma Brunch, these proposals present a fresh and stimulating
vision of contemporary art, offering the public the possibility of exploring new ways of interacting with
painting and space, creating visual experiences that invite the viewer to reflect on nature, paradise
and contemporary representations of the world.
An Wei, known for his experimental approach to figurative painting, presents an installation which
explores the notion of space through expansive fragments. On this occasion, the painting becomes a
habitable and passable place, generating an immersive installation that invites visitors to reflect on
the problematic relationship between man and paradise. Through the recreation of a garden, the work
addresses the concept of domesticated nature, questioning what we understand by “paradise” in a
world dominated by humans.
Paul Riedmüller presents a new series of works he has developed during his residency at the gallery,
deeply influenced by the landscape of Mallorca and his daily experiences on the island. The pieces,
ranging from still lifes to landscapes and bold spatial interventions, transform the exhibition space
into an immersive environment. His work aligns with Jean Baudrillard’s theory of the simulacrum,
exploring the dissolution of the boundary between image and reality through digital renderings
materialized on canvas. Riedmüller confronts us with a hyperreality that redefines our perception of
images and their relationship to the world we inhabit.
The event will take place on March 21, from 18:00 to 21:00h, and on March 22, from 11:00 to 14:00h
at C/ Molí del Comte, 47A. The shows will be open until May 30, encouraging viewers to immerse
themselves in a visual dialogue to question reality and perception, in the context of a dynamic and
evocative space.
