Stefan Rinck Germany, b. 1973

Curated by Peter Ungeheuer, the exhibition "Die Handtasche muss lebendig sein" (in English: The handbag must be alive) brings together for the first time Philip Grözinger’s paintings of colourful imaginary worlds populated by extraordinary figures and creatures in dialogue with Rinck’s humorous stone sculptures that become mythical creatures, monsters and grimacing animals. The first joint exhibition by Stefan Rinck and Philip Grözinger is a collaboration in the truest sense of the word, as the majority of the works on display are created for this exhibition, including the joint work ’Lonely tunes’ pictured above.
