We are delighted to announce the opening of the solo exhibition “See you in the Funny Papers”
by Tatjana Danneberg at Galeria Dawid Radziszewski Vienna.
“Mostly taken from American newspapers, these are also known as ‘leisure pages’, ‘funny pages’ or just the ‘funnies’; they contain comics, crossword puzzles or Sudokus. They are thin, sometimes flesh-coloured, and carefully arranged in order. Later, enlarged during the printing process, they envelop the canvas like a skin, behind which is no other layer. The skin traditionally demarcates the outside from the inside; it is also associated with depth and corporeality. As far as painting is concerned, it leads us to the great questions of the medium, which demanded skill, ability and deception on the naked body.”
