Sch枚ner Wohnen
Taking as its title "SCH脰NER WOHNEN" or 'live more beautifully', Galerie B盲rbel Gr盲sslin is ushering in this year's summer exhibition with a touch of humor: On show are works by Michael Beutler, G眉nther F枚rg, Georg Herold, Ika Huber, Martin Kippenberger, Meuser, Tobias Rehberger, Andreas Slominski, Franz West, and Heimo Zobernig.
Borrowing from the eponymous German interior design magazine "SCH脰NER WOHNEN", all the pieces on display have one of two things in common: either they can be used and therefore have a practical value, or they at least intimate they have a use, have a shape or title that alludes to consumer goods or refer to architecture: They illuminate, divide, or separate the space, offer all manner of opportunities to sit, recline, or to hang things.
Tobias Rehberger's ensemble of luminaires "Allein sein ist wundersch枚n鈥�" ('It's marvelous to be alone'; 2024) hangs in the gallery entrance area, its hand-blow elements reminiscent of falling rain drops. The five painterly elements of Ika Huber's "Noir d鈥檒voire" (2012) paravent unite to form a room divider. The gallery's main hall is sub-divided into various sections that are roughly assigned to the respective artists.
3D-printed works by Tobias Rehberger are arranged on a magenta carpet. The layers of both objects reveal that they are produced by machine. The artist based them on found models such as are constantly available in their thousands as downloads on the Web. By simple manipulation of the templates (distortion, modification in scale, and the addition of lamps) Tobias Rehberger explores the process of finding the right form for an artwork, something he believes is open-ended.
