About The Work
Tim Berresheim calls himself a “maker of images” and willfully ignores the traditional genres of fine art practice, blurring the lines between various media, making everything from all encompassing installations and architectural projects to unique art works and larger editions. This limited edition print is from an exhibition entitled New Strength from an Old Root—the “old root” referenced by the works is not only the panel picture that is still the most prominent presentational format in the field of fine art, but also the computer, which for the past fifty years has been available as a tool to generate images. According to Berresheim, it is still primarily being used in the sense of a “doubling of the world” or simulating the world as standardized by one-point perspective, and thus not used to the full extent of its potential. The root cited above is symbolized by a lemon with male attributes—still fragrant but, as can be seen on this exhibition poster, simultaneously dependent on a walking aid and notepad.
