Visit to PRESENT PENDULUM by Niko Abramidis &NE at max goelitz

“The solo exhibition present pendulum by Niko Abramidis &NE explores a mythology of the present marked by artistic analysis, comic-like exaggeration, and a hopeful aesthetic. Following the euphoria for entrepreneurship and financial economics that characterized his installation works of recent years, his new paintings, drawings, and objects outline a reflection on the status quo of a hybrid reality and a pause in the face of an open future. They propose a deconstruc-tion of the old world order and question the promise that technology and progress will solve all human problems. Great attention is paid to the medium of drawing in order to express the fragility of this liminal state and to emphasize immediacy, sensitivity, and poetics. Based on the concept of „metamodernity“1, Niko Abramidis &NE‘s current works create visual worlds of an undecided future, oscillating like a pendulum between utopia and dystopia, in search of a new equilibrium.” (Text excerpt from the press release by courtesy of max goelitz)
