- Text in English and German
Sebastian Dannenberg (b.1980) sees painting as a universal action that transforms observations and considerations and lends them material form. Backspace brings together groups of works from the last 15 years and showcases Dannenberg's interventionistic approach: his paintings can be found on ceilings and floors, in passageways, corners, or in the form of wall brackets. Often, they provide architecture with contours, disrupt the perception of space and open up new perspectives on the supposedly familiar. Precision and wit converge in a practice that combines the formal rigour of minimalistic methods with the subjectivity of handwriting and personal expression. Backspace documents, among other things, Dannenberg's participation in exhibitions at institutions such as the Bundeskunsthalle in Bonn and the Kunsthalle Bremen, as well as various projects in public spaces. Three accompanying essays contextualize his extensive oeuvre and reveal a view of painting that constantly redefines its own boundaries.

About the Author
Sebastian Dannenberg was born in Bottrop in 1980, studied art education in Ottersberg, then from 2008 to 2012 at the Academy of Fine Arts with Leni Hoffmann and from 2012 to 2015 at the University of the Arts in Bremen with Stephan Baumkötter (master student). Sebastian Dannenberg deals with painting, with its basic structural conditions, with its effect on the surface, in space, in architecture. The focus of his interest is the question of what is 'behind it'. The 'front side' of his works conceals more than it reveals – in this way, he manages the balancing act of a contemporary position in painting between illusion and autonomy. Despite all their complexity and density, the works radiate humorous openness and reveal a compositional wit, also due to their play with the provisional.
