What does the whole mean in a time when images are constantly fragmented, shared, reproduced, and reassembled?
The exhibition [GESAMT] explores this question—not as an answer, but as a proposition. For this body of work, Jan-Hendrik Pelz works with reproductions of artworks from the [gesamtkunstwerk] collection. He cuts them apart, dissolves their original contexts, and recombines fragments from different works into new visual constellations. From these collages emerge 14 oil paintings, including a monumental triptych.
