Artist Andrea Grützner (born 1984 in Pirna) has been working on her photographic series at the Erbgericht Polenz a country inn in eastern Saxony for a decade. The building has fascinated her since childhood and its name refers to some regional cultural history concerning jurisdiction which goes back to the Middle Ages. Its interior contains a historically evolved collage of materials and spaces that have been linked to the memories and emotions of the locals since its opening in 1898. Andrea Grützner doesn’t primarily show the familiar nostalgic scenes and stereotypes of the province such as the tavern decorated with antlers. Instead she elaborately stages the deserted angled interior in front of her analogue camera using neutral and coloured fl ash… The result is an avant garde labyrinth of intensely colourful and luminous shadow geometries that superimpose fragments of space and objects in a painterly manner while their magical realism simultaneously refers to the subjectively and collectively coloured spaces of memories as well as utopian visions of space. The large double-sided abstract visual compositions which are rotated 90 degrees in the book create a playful enigmatic sense of vertigo that gradually triggers a way to decipher things and perceive traces of use. The pull of this extraordinary pictorial cosmos is intensifi ed by the implementation of the extended seven-colour off set printing process and the tactile layering of diff erent surfaces refl ecting the artist’s process.
