Magnus Plessen’s “Your Face in My Hands” Opens at WENTRUP Gallery in Berlin
Berlin’s WENTRUP gallery will present “Dein Gesicht in meinen Hรคnden” (Yourโ Face inโค My Hands),the first solo exhibition โคof new work by artist Magnus Plessen,beginning September 12,2025,with a vernissage on โขSeptember 11th. The exhibition explores themesโค ofโ memory, perception, and familialโข reckoning through layered oilโ and charcoal paintings.
Plessen’s latest body of work was profoundly shaped byโค the recent loss of his father and a โsubsequent revisitingโ of ancestral portraits from his childhood. This personal experience has resulted in paintings that oscillate between abstraction and figuration, transforming intimate memories into tactile and evocative images. The exhibitionโข offers a compelling look into the artist’s process of navigating grief and heritage,โ resonating with audiences interested in contemporary explorations of โidentity andโค the power of visual storytelling.
The exhibition will be on view through November 1, โ2025.
Vernissage: Thursday, September โ11, 2025, 6 – 10โ pm
Exhibition Period: Friday, โคSeptember 12 โค- โขSaturday, November 1, โ2025
