Introduction: Manuela Schlossinger

The group exhibition PAPER WORKS! at Reinisch Contemporary focuses on the medium of paper itself and presents works by 21 artists who have used its materiality in a variety of ways.
Paper is an important carrier material for many artists. You not only use it to prepare and sketch work, but also deal with this material in principle. Paper has the great advantage that it can not only be used as a surface for painting, but can also be used to cover large spaces. You can make sculptures and objects with paper just as you can make a painting or graphic on it. That’s what makes this material so incredibly exciting.
