Max Hetzler Bleibtreustraße 45

TURSIC & MILLE: The Thing

3. Juni – 6. August 2022

Galerie Max Hetzler is pleased to present a double exhibition of new and recent works by Tursic & Mille, on view at two of the gallery’s locations in Berlin: Bleibtreustraße 45 and 15/16. It is the artist duo’s fourth solo exhibition with the gallery.

Ida Tursic and Wilfried Mille have been working together since 2000, delving into the contemporary world’s overload of images to approach the question of how to paint in the present age. Known for their joyfully eccentric paintings and sculptures which combine an awareness of art history with a wide spectrum of motifs, Tursic & Mille simultaneously act within and challenge the tradition of the medium, with a playful mixture of ‘high’ and ‘low’ references. Instinctively culled from different media, especially the Internet, the elements within their work alternate as a language in themselves, or guide the viewer through scenes, reflecting on the practice of painting.
