Lutz Bacher: Into the Dimensional Corridor is currently on view at Galerie Buchholz in New York.

“Into the Dimensional Corridor” refers to a phrase from the first season episode of the Star Trek series regarding a magnetic corridor that allows travel between parallel universes of matter and anti-matter.

The exhibition includes scuffed Plexiglas. “a room-sized abstraction”, and life-sized cutouts from Star Trek (Treks, 2006) inside the Plexiglas. The installation also includes digital projectors that play a “standby blue” which is the color a projector shows when the media is missing alongside texts of summaries of each character’s life beneath the cutouts. 

The show runs until July 25, 2025.

Lutz Bacher’s work is in the collections of major museums around the world, including the Museum of Modern Art, New York; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; The Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; Walker Art Center, Minneapolis; The Art Institute of Chicago; Astrup Fearnley Museum, Oslo; K21 Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen, Düsseldorf; mumok, Vienna; Museum Ludwig, Cologne; The Pinault Collection, Paris; and the Louisiana Museum, Humlebaek.
