Christian Vetter

Christain Vetter’s corpus of abstract line paintings is unified in one image defined by decisive gestures that divides the space at the same time as it connects opposite areas. The image itself therefore creates a determined space for the mind to inhabit and complete. The artist places the viewer at the center point of the exhibition, aiming to immerse him into an imaginative space of no structural reference but the ecology of painting. Ecology of painting refers to being embedded as a painter into the history of painting, as well as painting being embedded in language.


He has had solo exhibitions at Yvon Lambert in New York, Museum Langmatt in Baden, and Kunstmuseum St.Gallen, among others. His works have been included in group exhibitions at institutions such as Musée des Beaux-Arts in Le Lôcle, S.M.A.K. in Gent, and Centre for Contemporary Art in Vilnius.
