The anatomy of surface. On show a series of photograps. His newest works, are documentaries on specific architectural forms and about the relation between the people and the places they build.
The anatomy of surface
In his new series entitled "the anatomy of surface", frank hülsbömer fills his
surfaces with a semantic depth which appears diametrically opposed to the idea of
surface itself. here surfaces are led to simulate objects via curves and kinks,
alternatively becoming independent zones, configurations or positions, juxtaposed as
they are with neighbouring surfaces and objects in contrasting shades.
the photographs are digitally unmanipulated and only print optimised yet their
rendering-like aesthetics suggest a binaric origin.
connotations of bauhaus and russian avant-garde appear but, at the same time,
hülsbömer ironizes their search for abstraction via fragmentation and reduction.
one is reminded of the physical theories of the past century, though these
photographs constitute an independent visionary entity.
all in all, hülsbömer's work appears to have undergone an artistic development from
an subjective capturing of existing spaces to the conceptually creative. the
exhibition also includes the "remix" series, which contrasts one external and one
internal image in a sequence of diptyches, comprehensibly charting the artist's
reversal - by association. magda danysz is also showing a series of works named:
"family constellations" which is part of hülsbömer's pictogram studies.
