The exhibition Freeze Frame? explores how the cinematic way of seeing is reflected in contemporary painting and how the return to narrative, scenography, and emotion shapes today's visual language. It draws attention to the cinematic principles that influence painting across generations and, in turn, presents painting as a space that transforms cinematic aesthetics into new meanings. It shows that today's painters think with a camera rather than a sketchbook, and that film is as natural a model for them as landscape was for the Impressionists.
