With Freeze, Collectors Agenda is presenting two artists from the Viennese art scene at Franz-Josefs-Kai, Angelika Loderer and Andreas Duscha, whose practice may not intuitively feel related. Freeze is therefore an attempt to point out a subtle relationship that is manifested in two concrete work series that have emerged in collaboration between Collectors Agenda.

To sharpen the senses and directing the view on the mundane and unnoticed, attributing new value or even lending a new poetic quality to events or objects seems to be represented in both Angelika Loderer’s and Andreas Duscha’s practice. Both exhibited work series appear to be capturing an instant frozen in time, a blink-of-an eye situation that represents a moment in which distinct shapes emerge, incapable of being repeated.

It is maybe exactly this ephemeral fragile nature of the sujets – a snowball about to melt, the satellite picture showing the eye of a storm – from which the works derive their specific appeal. Viewers discover beauty in an object or natural phenomenon that otherwise would go unnoticed.

To enable invited guests to the Belvedere Museum Neujahrsempfang that same evening we will be opening already at 18 h for a preview.
Angelika Loderer is opening her solo show Opening: Angelika Loderer ‘Night Pieces’ with Sophie Tappeiner. In the space adjacent from Collectors Agenda, Zeller van Almsick are opening Hyperbole with Karolina Jabłońska.
