Gregor Hildebrandt AUF FALSCHER SEITE IN DIE FALSCHE RICHTUNG

Jun 6 — Jul 26, 2025 | London

Opening on Friday, June 6, 2025 from 6 to 8 pm

Almine Rech London is pleased to present 'AUF FALSCHER SEITE IN DIE FALSCHE RICHTUNG,' Gregor Hildebrandt's ninth solo exhibition with the gallery, on view from June 6 to July 26, 2025.

There is a distinct Warholian bent in the shiny, glossy, pop glamour of Hildebrandt’s work, but his engagement with music is the driving force. For the past 25 years, Hildebrandt has primarily created a variety of unique collages intertwined with music. “I wanted to make paintings that were like pieces of music,” he explains in an interview with curator Jérôme Sans. Music is everywhere in his work, whether it is apparent—as in the actual material (vinyl records, cassette tape, video tape)—or invisible (a specially chosen tune or film recorded onto a record or tape subsequently used as the physical material for the work).
