Lines, Curves and Gestures
The works of Sergio Femar (born in Galicia, Spain, in 1990, where he lives and works) are reminiscent of the sophisticated use of materials in Arte Povera, but through the various cuts in the wood, he shows a new way of approaching it. Pieces of this material are painted, sprayed and assembled to create unique and cheerful reflections.
"My work stands between the tranquillity of the studio and the hectic pace of contemporary culture and its transience. It leads the act of vandalism to mature reflection; in other words, it brings back the joys of creation without feeling constrained by academic pressure, using risk as a connecting element between vertigo and serenity.
The spatial sculptures by Heike Weber (born in 1971 in Nürtingen, lives and works in Cologne) develop their own formal language through the way in which the connections are made, displaying complexity and three-dimensionality. They fit into the space with an unobtrusive lightness, forming a space of their own. By connecting individual arches, new objects with interior spaces are created. The sculptures grow into a new whole as they are worked on. Interior spaces are created by connecting arches, which become tangible and give the form a surrounding space and its own aura. Heike Weber plays with form and space in a disconcertingly calming way.
Seit über zwei Jahrzehnten erkundet Douglas Witmer (*1971 in Winchester, Virginia, lebt und arbeitet in Philadelphia) kontinuierlich und subjektiv die Materialität des gemalten Objektes und verfeinert dabei schrittweise seine Arbeit im Rahmen der reduktiven abstrakten Malerei. Seine elementaren kompositorischen Strukturen werden durch sinnliche Farben und vielfältig improvisierte gestische und zufällige Handlungen aktiviert. Sein nachhaltiges Interesse besteht darin, einen visuellen Ort zu schaffen, der in offener Weise zu persönlichen Seh- und Empfindungserfahrungen einlädt.
