Summary:

The subtle, figurative paintings by Johannes Hüppi (*1965 Baden-Baden) captivate the viewer through a visual language that so fervently acknowledges its underlying fantasies. The presented series of works Museum Museum finds its stage in Hüppi's very personal Musée imaginaire. Within a sensual presence of untouchable innocence, his female nudes stroll through the secret inner world of museum interiors trying to allure the beholder into the realm of the artistic masterpieces' dreamy or nightmarish narratives. What happens when Hüppi's nudes come across the paintings they formally arose from?
