Press Release

On the occasion of Berlin Art Week 2025, Wentrup is pleased to present Dein Gesicht in meinen Händen (Your face in my hands), Magnus Plessen’s first solo exhibition with the gallery. Magnus Plessen’s latest body of work was shaped by a moment of personal reckoning: the death of his father and a return to childhood memories of ancestral portraits. Paintings emerge from this intimate landscape, turning memory and perception into tactile, layered images that oscillate between abstraction and figuration. The material density of his faces gives them a tactile immediacy, evoking the sense that they could be physically held in one’s hands.

Thoughts from Tina Wentrup on the role of hands and gestures in the work of Pina Bausch and Magnus Plessen
