On the occasion of her receiving the Hannah-Höch-Förderpreises (Hannah Höch Advancement Award) of the State of Berlin 2014, Julia Oschatz (born 1970 in Darmstadt) is showing an exhibition of her work in the cabinet room of the painting gallery. She conceived the exhibition specifically for this location by taking, for example, the painting "Netherlandish Proverbs” (1559) by Pieter Bruegel as the starting point for pictorial and medial reflexions for individual scenes and figures. These include drawings, monotypes and etchings, as well as painting and video performances, which merge together in a stage-like space built of cardboard to be experienced by the observer.

Since 2011 the artist has been working on her series "adorP”, which refers to the masterpieces in the Prado Museum in Madrid and the expressiveness and eloquence of the old masters’ paintings, in order to re-explore and further develop their pictorial (but also nonsensical) content, so that the observer can be made to think on multiple levels.
