- Tobias Rehberger
Sceiss nazis
22/01/2008 - 08/03/2008
The third solo show is being presented these days, at the Heinrich Ehrhardt Gallery, by the young German Tobias Rehberger (Esslingen, 1966). After his multiple intervention in the exhibition I die every day. Cor / 15.31 for the MNCARS- Palacio de Cristal-, Rehberger exhibits again in the gallery with the exhibition Sceiss Nazis.
In this new case, a series of wall-sculptures are integrated into the space of the room to show, in the artist’s own words, “the idea of the wall as an object, the wall as a material. As a basis for transporting information.
They are walls with Graffiti, lattices that separate and delimit, that enclose the space in its intensity, and modify it in that “Rehbergerian” way of strident colors and inorganic materials; the plastic and functional values of design and architecture are made available to the artistic object, as in most of his work, to discover a new dimension of sculpture.
It also includes a series of lamps made in mixed media, an evolution of the artist’s love for lighting and the importance of light as a social and vital engine –appreciable, among others, in the Treballant/Working/Arbeitend project carried out for the room Montcada of Barcelona.
Tobias Rehberger is currently considered one of the most recognized young artists; professor at the Städelschule in Frankfurt, has exhibited in the last year in different groups of Spanish museums such as CGAC, MUSAC or Artium, and in cities as diverse as Tokyo or Milan, also presenting at the end of this month of February, a monographic in the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam.
