Pamela Rosenkranz

Pamela Rosenkranz Work from her oeuvre. “Whilst basically Rosenkranz’s œuvre walks a tight conceptual line, the artist’s practice features a lightness of touch, that belies the use of irony, play and humor in its making. In general, Rosenkranz’s works speak of a mercurial élan, an “inform” physicality and a pervasive sense of “mise en scene”. […]

Ethan Greenbaum

Ethan Greenbaum Work from his oeuvre. “For the concrete block piece, I substituted colored plasticine for mortar. In this position, the plasticine becomes filler that describes and embellishes the in-between spaces of the wall. Permanent Fern is made with a plastic plant and a cast generated from the cardboard shipping box it arrived in. Primer […]

Michael Sailstorter

Michael Sailstorter Work from his oeuvre. “Transformations, contextual adjustments, spatial appropriation – in Sailstorfer’s work one is quick to recognize his interest in everyday objects, materials that surround us, his hands-on fascination with the specific identity and history of these objects and the fate they may evoke – in short the inherent associations they trigger, […]

Stefano Calligaro

Stefano Calligaro Work from his oeuvre. “The nature of Stefano Calligaro’s practice can be seen as a minimal intent to describe the construction of an artwork through layers of gestures as collecting displacing and remodeling materials, images and meanings. The works and their subtle presence in the space are tracing a constellation of references in constant […]

Aaron Finnis

Aaron Finnis Work from his oeuvre. “… Aaron’s installations explore concepts of reality, illusion, perception, and deception using the dissonance between the tape sculptures’ similarity in appearance and their assumption of real form through light. Aaron creates art that could be interpreted as a confidence trick: The viewer is deceived by the value of hollow objects […]

David Raymond Conroy

Davi Raymond Conroy Work from his oeuvre. “From spiritual transfiguration to critical resistance, some form of distance has always been attributed to the artwork. This distance has historically been considered somewhat revelatory in that it announces a beyond that might open to either sacred or secular enlightenment, and perhaps more recently politics. That the artwork […]

Josué Rauscher

Josué Rauscher Work from his oeuvre, text from his website, translated by Google. I WOULD GLADLY MAKE SECOND HAND SCULPTURES. (I would gladly do sculptures by hand). – – – I like to say that I am the little free time I have to fix the world with a jigsaw (and some other utensils). (I […]

Ceal Floyer

Ceal Floyer Work from her oeuvre. The work of Ceal Floyer is nothing if not succinct — sometimes it can be pretty hard to spot: the image of a light switch, for instance, projected on to the wall of a gallery precisely where you would expect a light switch to be. But if her work […]

United Visual Artists

United Visual Artists The Creators Project: How did UVA first begin its splendid attacks on our senses? Matt Clark: We met in the world of designing for live performance. Working as individual freelancers, we worked on a couple of projects together and thought, “Why don’t we start up our own thing?” I guess our original […]

Igor Eskinja

Igor Eskinja Work from his oeuvre. “Igor Eskinja constructs his architectonics of perception as ensembles of modesty and elegance. The artist “performs” the objects and situations, catching them in their intimate and silent transition from two-dimensional to three-dimensional formal appearance. Using simple, inexpensive materials, such as adhesive tape or electric cables and unraveling them with […]
