Funky Minimal
His work method could best be described as “funky minimalism.” Often grouped with the so-called Neo-Geo artists of the early 1980s, Gerwald Rockenschaub (*1952) left this label behind long ago. In the meantime, he’s developed an innovative palette of new works out of an abstract, minimalist framework. Rockenschaub finds inspiration for his frequently three-dimensional, brilliantly colorful works in modernism, abstract concepts, Pop Art, Minimal Art, everyday culture, and last but not least, in the techno and electronic music scene where he’s long been a DJ. The exhibition and catalogue convey an impression of how the artist has developed a completely independent style of his own.
Exhibition: 04.05.2017 – 14.10.2017, Sammlung Goetz, Base 103, Munich
