In the exhibition dekohärenz – nelle vene del mondo, Jürgen Partenheimer unfolds an open system between lyrical visual spaces and the conceptual realm of scientific thought. Through artistic interpretation, the title brings together theoretical insight from quantum physics and a poetic perception of the world. In physics, the concept of decoherence describes the dynamic correlation between object and environment as an inevitable interaction through which stable relations dissolve. The poetic line of verse by Eugenio Montale, “nelle vene del mondo” (Italian for “in the veins of the world”), evokes the idea of a movement of natural forces that is at once directed and open, permeating the world. Within Partenheimer’s work – which understands perception as an open process – analytical insight and lyrical sensibility emerge as bearer of an abstract order.
