Sebastian Dannenberg (b.1980) sees painting as a universal action that transforms observations and considerations and lends them material form. BACKSPACE brings together groups of works from the last fifteen years and showcases Dannenberg\'s interventionistic approach: his paintings can be found on ceilings and floors, in passageways, corners, or in the form of wall brackets. Often, they provide architecture with contours, disrupt the perception of space and open up new perspectives on the supposedly familiar. Precision and wit converge in a practice that combines the formal rigor of minimalistic methods with the subjectivity of handwriting and personal expression. BACKSPACE documents, among other things, Dannenberg\'s participation in exhibitions at institutions such as the Bundeskunsthalle in Bonn and the Kunsthalle Bremen, as well as various projects in public spaces. Three accompanying essays contextualize his extensive oeuvre and reveal a view of painting that constantly redefines its own boundaries.
