Markus Saile’s works convene the space of painting in an interplay between the space where it is situated, the space it represents, and the space it constructs in dialogue with architecture. Pictorial problems thus can be understood as architectural problems, in the sense of a socio-political structure. Beyond the in-situ and the context, it is an investigation into painting in volume, the depth of the surface, and the extension of this practice into a performative field of action.
