{"title":"Adrien Horni","description":"\u003cp\u003eAdrien Horni (born 1981, Geneva) is a Swiss artist whose practice moves across painting, publication, and the printed image. Working from a base in Geneva, Horni has developed a body of work in which the processes of reproduction — scanning, photocopying, layering, transfer — are not merely technical operations but the generative conditions of the work itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHorni is best known for his long-running collaboration with LINUS BILL, through which the two artists developed the \u003cem\u003eGemälde\u003c\/em\u003e project: a sustained exchange of drawn, cut, and scanned images that were first assembled into Xeroxed publications before being scaled into large acrylic and silkscreen paintings. The printed page was never subordinate to the canvas — finished works carry titles such as \u003cem\u003eGemälde, p. 53\u003c\/em\u003e, preserving the publication as the named origin of each painting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePublications by Adrien Horni — produced alone and in collaboration — occupy a precise position within his practice: small-edition catalogues, artist books, and exhibition documents in which the image exists at an earlier, less resolved stage. Thin stock, Xerox reproduction, and the faint legibility of one page through another are not incidental qualities but structural ones. These objects record a process rather than a result, and in doing so they remain open in ways that the finished painting is not.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"linus-bill-adrien-horni-gemalde-mj-2014","title":"LINUS BILL + ADRIEN HORNI — Gemälde.

Small compositions were gathered into publications before selected pages were translated into large paintings using acrylic and silkscreen. The page remained part of the finished work: canvases from the sequence retain titles such as \u003cem\u003eGemälde, p. 53\u003c\/em\u003e, identifying the printed model from which they emerged.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduced for their 2014 exhibition at M J in Geneva, this early \u003cem\u003eGemälde\u003c\/em\u003e catalogue contains 36 Xeroxed pages of layered photographs, digital marks, cartoon fragments and abstract forms. Its thin, slightly translucent stock allows images and typography to remain faintly visible through adjoining pages. The publication does not simply reproduce the paintings; it records the stage at which their images existed before enlargement, colour and transfer to canvas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe project expanded the following year into \u003cem\u003eGemälde 2013–2017\u003c\/em\u003e, a 367-page volume assembling more than 350 proposed paintings in advance of their production.
