Located in Berlin, Karlsruhe and Basel, Meyer Riegger maintains a curatorially driven programme. Since its inception in 1997, the gallery has established itself as a setting to investigate artistic practices, showing a distinctive combination of painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, film, performance and installation-based work. Meyer Riegger seeks to place an emphasis on the world around us, collaborating with artists and organising shows that interrogate questions relevant to our existence and that explore important political and social topics.
During the 2000s, looking to integrate artists into the gallery’s programme for whom existential questions around life and death, performance and the human body play an important role, Meyer Riegger forged relationships with artists such as Katinka Bock, Miriam Cahn, Eva Koťátková and Ján Mančuška.
Meyer Riegger currently represents more than 20 international artists from different generations, many of whom the gallery has accompanied since the start of their careers. Numerous artists that Meyer Riegger works with are frequently the subjects of presentations at globally renowned institutions and biennials. At the same time, the gallery is continuously looking to foster new relationships and to integrate new positions into its programme, through a desire to explore the many currents of contemporary artistic creation.
