Frank Gerritz: Temporary Ground: Cat. Museum Wiesbaden
No Customer Reviews
Frank Gerritz, born in 1964 in Hamburg, is an artist whose ideas literally move in space. Starting from the floor, his work spills onto the wall and, from there, has an effect back into the room. The sculptor works, among other things, on aluminum panels with paintsticks in such dense layers that the surfaces on the one hand appear sealed, yet the structure of the application on the other hand remains visible. Black is not always black; where the silver-anodized aluminum sur-faces reflect the room, the darker parts of the -surfaces reveal a shimmering, a residue of light that changes depending on the viewpoint and light conditions. The drawn surfaces - graphite pencil or paintstick on MDF boards or aluminum - develop a materiality characterized by blurred reflections, thus transferring the surfaces of the two-dimen-sional image carriers into a spatial dimension. In addition, Gerritz casts iron blocks based on his own body dimensions; their stand area form the basis for his first prints on paper and define the proportions of his sculptural works in front of the wall. The catalog shows the inherent spatiality of the wall objects and sculptural groups and unfolds specific details.
