Michael Riedel

By Michael Riedel

Since the late 1900s, Michael Riedel (b. R?sselsheim, Germany, 1972) has devised a creative production of seemingly inexhaustible variability in which new works are developed out of existing materials. "Muster des Kunstsystems [wallpapers]" is a collection of nineteen removable pattern sheets. The patterns shown (all Untitled) were created between 2010 and 2017 and applied to gallery and museum walls as well as canvases and other support media. Besides other places, they were on view in exhibitions at the Schirn Kunsthalle, Frankfurt; the Palais de Toyko, Paris; the Museum f?r Angewandte Kunst, Vienna; Kunsthalle Z?rich; the David Zwirner showrooms in London and New York. The texts of which the patterns are composed are selfdescriptions of the art system that the artist excerpts from and then reinserts into the flow of communication.
