Hubert Scheibl’s paintings are poignantly balanced between intuition and careful consideration, between an impulsive painterly directness and a reflective distance. The artist likes to give his paintings expressive titles, often borrowed from the cinema, intentionally evoking, as a subtext, a variety of associations in the viewer. Yet the attempt to discover a theme usually comes to naught, or rather leads back to painting itself, to colour and the movement generated by the layers of paint.

David Meskhi focuses on movement in his artistic practice as a photographer. Coming from a dynasty of successful youth sport coaches, he grew up surrounded by sports events and competitions. In his last series he captured mostly athletes during their training, creating aesthetic compositions of men seemingly floating in air in a moment of weightlessness. His imagery is poetic, raises connotations of sexuality, belief and expresses a common urge of the youth to free itself from social boundaries.
