Jeanette Mundt's First German Institutional Solo Show at G2 Kunsthalle Leipzig
The G2 Kunsthalle Leipzig is currently hosting Jeanette Mundt's inaugural solo exhibition in Germany, titled 'Public and Beyond Judgment.' This showcase includes a series of new paintings alongside a significant mural, where elements of art history dissolve into abstraction. The exhibition's title alludes to a letter by Gustave Courbet, in which he describes his work as 'received by the public and beyond all judgment.' Embracing this 'punk' ethos, Mundt emphasizes the potency of painting over specific themes. She revisits genre painting to explore a 'groundless' contemporary visual landscape, employing classical elements as means for instinctive abstraction. The exhibition will be open until October 4, 2026.
