# 21er Raum: Rita Vitorelli

## Volatile Color Rushes through Time

![Rita Vitorelli  Untitled, 2013  Trackpad drawing (Feet 3)  Dimensions variable](https://www.belvedere.at/sites/default/files/styles/header_cropped_1920x480_fp/public/jart-images/_439886223349.jpeg.webp?itok=7tTIG7ih) 

**Duration:** 13 March 2014 - 21 April 2014

**Rita Vitorelli’s works push the boundaries of ‘expanded pictorial space’, thereby questioning what the medium of painting implies. At the 21er Raum, a representative and individual painterly gesture is juxtaposed to a digital hand; authorship meets creative complicity while traditional themes of composition are confronted with issues of illustrability – all of which is staged within a multimedia setting.**

Rita Vitorelli was born in 1972 and lives and works in Vienna and Berlin. Her most recent exhibitions include: *Very abstract and really figurative*, Galerie Emanuel Layr, Vienna (2012); *The Happy Fainting of Painting*, Zwinger Galerie, Berlin (2012); *Die/Der Würfel/Le Dé* (III), COCO, Vienna (2012).
