Eklipse
14th of October until 17th of November, 2006
Diskus is pleased to present the work of Stefanie Bühler in her second solo exhibition with the gallery. The sculptures of the Dresden based artist give us an insight both in familiar situations of human life and in inconceivable natural occurrences. The beauty of geological and cosmic incidents finds the opposite in the ordinary human, in everyday life, in the small things.
Stefanie Bühlers idiosyncrasy to choose details or measures and finding visual ciphers for complex forms of nature causes this astonishingly feasible, detailed representation of landscape or intensity of a phenomenon, which probably never existed this way. The plausibility of the nonproven is so much more important for Bühlers work, than a scientific or a photorealistic point of view.
We find her new work subsumed under the term of darkening, the eclipse, which seems to prove - against all scientific clarifications – the existence of secrets and the marvellous.
It is the charme of a convincing diorama and the excitement of a child stepping into it.
It is the knowledge of a kid, not of a grown up. It is the knowledge of the existence of something hidden in the twilight, in basement's darkness. |
