When I draw with digital tools, by “drawing and holding creates a shape” I can completely detach myself from the idea of the drawn line.
Through “Adjust QuickShape” it is possible to push lines together or pull them apart.
The movement can be fast-forwarded and rewound. The movement in itself becomes invisible and can be restored.
Back and forth, forward and backward, bundling, direction and movement are movable for a moment of holding without leaving traces on the digital surface. Only by setting down in time the digital line remains drawn.
The movement of the drawn lines are bundled into one line by “drawing and holding creates a shape” so that the viewer can only guess what is hidden in this one red line.

RHYTHM SECTION SALON BINÄR
Wuhan – Munich
Digital exhibition in the public space of the city of Munich
A digital exhibition project initiated by Hubei Institute of Fine Arts, Wuhan; Digital Art Space Munich; Kulturreferat Munich and the artist group Rhythm Section Munich.
Funded by the Bavarian State Ministry of Science and the Arts; Cultural Foundation of Stadtsparkasse Munich; Ströer; Hubei Institute of Fine Arts, Wuhan; Guangzhou D-Lab Cultural Development Co., Ltd; Villa Waldberta, Artists’ House of the City of Munich.
Due to the pandemic and zero covid strategy, the exhibitions of artists from Wuhan can hardly be presented and communicated abroad. The distance between Chinese artists and viewers in Europe is greater than ever. How can artists bring works closer to the public with a flight distance of 8,376 km between Wuhan and Munich?
Digitization influences and changes daily life, relationships, work and even elections. Urban development is taking the form of a megamedium.
Smart city stands for intelligent networking within a city. Moving images are a trendy topic for media in public spaces. Moving images on public video screens offer the opportunity for effective communication with mobile audiences in passing.
The Stachus Passagen – Europe’s largest underground shopping center – is located in the middle of Munich’s city center, directly at Karlsplatz/Stachus. From August 28 to September 7, 2023, from 6 a.m. to midnight, digital artworks by 5 artists from Wuhan and 5 artists from Munich will be broadcast on the public video stations of the Stachus Passagen, between the everyday mixture of editorial content and advertising.
RHYTHM SECTION SALON BINÄR is a digital gallery in public space that gives artists the opportunity to be seen and invites viewers to participate in the development of digital art. Art opens itself to the public and even to the public that does not come to the museum.
RHYTHM SECTION SALON BINÄR is a sustainable project, because no resources are consumed. The project uses the existing screens of the public urban space.

Art X Augsburg zeigt vom 9. Juli bis 5. August 2023 im Projektraum augsburg contemporary Arbeiten von Veronika Wenger und Florian Lechner
Veronika Wenger lotet in ihrem künstlerischen Schaffen die Möglichkeiten der Zeichnung aus. Zarte, wie hingehauchte Linien von poetischer Ästhetik kontrastieren mit kraftvollen, dynamischen Strukturen. Wengers Arbeiten entfalten sich zwischen den Polen der Abstraktion und der Gegenständlichkeit. Sie zeigen Anklänge an Architekturen, an Körper, an Schrift. Obgleich die Arbeiten einen Anlass in der gegenständlichen Welt haben, verliert im Laufe des künstlerischen Prozesses das Referenzobjekt seine Bedeutung. So bleiben auch vermeintliche Wörter in ihrer Unlesbarkeit reine Linien. Veronika Wenger arbeitet auf MDF, auf Papier und Pappe und nutzt neben verschiedenen Stiften auch Sprays. So entstehen teilweise leuchtende Farbflächen, die filigrane Linien überlagern.
