"1. Galerie Guido W. Baudach and Delmes & Zander gallery: Collaboration booth showing Thomas Zipp and Adelhyd van Bender
The fair's third level offers contemporary art galleries the opportunity to stage collaborative exhibitions, and pairing these two artists was a triumphant curatorial feat. Titled "Sacred Atomic Systems & Advances in Psychophysics," the presentation brings together artist Thomas Zipp, whose work stem from investigations of consciousness, brain activity, and mental illness (some viewers may recall his haunting presentation at the Palazzo Rossini for the 2013 Venice Biennale) and the obsessively prolific Adelhyd van Bender, a recluse who died of a cancerous tumour in 2014, which he considered to be the physical evidence of his feminine side (his solo show was one of the highlights of last year's Berlin Gallery Weekend). Adelhyd developed a cryptic system of signs which filled the pages upon pages of correspondence he had kept with different government bodies. Both artists take a systematic approach to their questioning of the place of the individual, mining larger existential questions through applied or thought-up scientific methods. Although van Bender is increasingly being shown in contexts other than that of "outsider art," his works are still very reasonably priced, starting at €800, while Zipp's works at the booth start at 10 times that."
