comunicato stampa

When Robert Pincus-Witten coined the art term Postminimalism in 1971, he tried to define the artistic positions that were working on a redefinition of Minimalism. The heterogeneity within this group proofs, that the term itself is more time wise related than it actually offers a formal result.

Over the years Richard Nonas has created an oeuvre, that doesn ́t deny the simplicity of materials, their regular arrangements and the sheer mass, but connects it with the real space, the shared space of the viewer. It is more than a formalist investigation. For Richard Nonas installation means putting together a show.

“What interested me ... was not minimalist ‘specific objects’ but rather the possibility of nonspecific charged ones: ‘dangerous objects’ whose power lay in their weird nonspecificity, their emotional slipperiness... . Tense, almost- vibrating objects were what I wanted, formal objects on the edge of becoming emotionally charged specific places.” Richard Nonas (2004)

The construction of an artistic world through a primary aesthetics and the division of the sensible “define the visibility or invisibility in a specific space and constitute who owns the approach to a common language and who does not.” Jacques Rancière (1)

Richard Nonas (*1936 in New York, lives and works in New York) is represented by Galerie Hubert Winter since 1990. In his 7 th solo exhibition in the gallery space at Breite Gasse he will combine early drawings with a site specific new sculpture made out of steel.
