SUMMARY:Jagoda Bednarsky
TRANSP:TRANSPARENT
UID:bednarsky_jagoda_616276
DESCRIPTION:Threads\, loops\, woven designs and mesh structures are const
 antly recurring elements in Jagoda Bednarsky’s paintings. The motifs are
  presented as regular patterns which cover almost the entire picture sur
 face or as wispy web-like forms fashioned of interlacing brushstrokes. R
 ather than offer the observer faithful reproductions\, however\, the art
 ist employs a light and flowing painterly touch to create this textured 
 effect.\n\nJagoda Bednarsky’s most recent works have led her into new te
 rritory as she plays on the German word "Gewebe"\, which means "(woven) 
 material" but also "tissue" in the biological sense. Here\, the motifs a
 re reminiscent of classic scientific illustrations\, for example of musc
 les in "The Matter" (2017)\, or of images obtained through medical imagi
 ng techniques and grant insights into physical structures. Jagoda Bednar
 sky culls all of her motifs from available pictorial material\, drawing 
 not only on historical sources such as scientific books and illustration
 s but also on art books\, advertising and digital representations as vis
 ual artefacts which already give structure to our world and shape our cu
 lture.\n\n[EMBEDDED]She then collages and paints over these found images
  in order\, through their new composition\, to achieve a new\, purely pa
 inting-based reality. Over and over\, the observer is invited to decode 
 the different layers of reality to which the works refer. The structures
 \, then\, do not allude to a reality that exists beyond the realms of pa
 inting\, but rather emphasise the construction of our images as a networ
 k of signs.\n\nJagoda Bednarsky first studied at the Kunsthochschule in 
 Kassel followed by\, from 2009 to 2014\, the Hochschule für Bildende Kün
 ste – Städelschule Frankfurt am Main. She lives and works in Berlin.\n\n
 Both the exhibition and the Bank’s art collection may be viewed as part 
 of guided tours.
