While Christian Hutzinger has previously served the canvas, as he himself calls it, as a "container", in his new series the artist increasingly tries to open up the closed cosmos of the canvas in his art, by allowing the forms concentrated at the corners of the picture to expand into the space at the same time. This becomes particularly clear in those works that leave one of the corners of the painting untouched and white, and in this way, provoke in the reception of these works the question of the boundaries between the canvas of the work and the wall of the exhibition space.
