Timm Ulrich’s solo exhibition brings together works of the last five decades that deal with fathoming and measuring, that call numbers into question, and that highlight addition, filling after emptying and displacing as artistic strategies. As such Ulrichs chisels a through out of block of sandstone to fill it with its own content in 1969/75 e.g. or in 2008/12 makes six identical copies of a genuine quarzite stone, only that they very in size, while the gestalt remains the same. 8 ½ Meisterwerke demonstrates how the ostensibly unique or absolute yields so much more when it becomes altered, augmented, displaced, or even multiplied – even at times just by half.
