The exhibition by Dutch artist herman de vries presents a work that turns nature itself into a work of art. de vries’ artistic engagement with nature thrives on immediacy and presence – nature is allowed to speak for itself. In a world that is becoming increasingly alienated from natural processes, he challenges us to sharpen our gaze, to make the hidden visible and to discover the extraordinary in the ordinary. “all this” is the artist’s first institutional solo exhibition in Austria. His works can be seen in numerous international art institutions. In 2015, herman de vries represented the Netherlands at the Venice Biennale.
