ES REGNET MENSCHEN / IT’S RAINING PEOPLE
MARTIN GERTLER & MALTE KAISER
Opening: Friday 9 May, 2025, 19.00
The Schlumper Gallery cordially invites you to the exhibition "It's Raining People" – an exciting joint show by artists Martin Gertler and Malte Kaiser, both long-standing members of the Schlumper studio community.
Despite stylistic differences, the works of both artists are united by close attention to detail and a shared fascination with figurative elements. In his latest works, Martin Gertler reduces the human figure to clear, schematic forms – whole clusters of people fall from the sky like raindrops and populate the picture in rhythmic rows.
Malte Kaiser, on the other hand, develops dense, ornamental compositions with abstracted images of human heads, which he also condenses into haunting individual portraits.
"It's Raining People" invites you to a multi-layered examination of the human image – between pattern, individual, and group.
We look forward to your visit!
