Dep Art Gallery  - MAIN SECTION: HALL LIGHT BLUE Booth 13 / HALL GRAY Booth 14

In the context of "The Era of Daydreaming," Dep Art Gallery presents a selection of works by Imi Knoebel, Regine Schumann, Wolfram Ullrich, and Gerold Miller. These artists, from different generations but sharing a constructivist and minimalist heritage, exemplify how daydreaming is the result of the innate process of abstraction, a unique and inherent characteristic of human beings. Each artist arrives at the production of works that transcend both iconic representation and pure abstraction, inviting viewers into an experiential realm that engages the senses and stimulates the mind.

Imi Knoebel's minimalist approach blends painting and sculpture, focusing on color and structure. His geometric compositions and vibrant colors evoke a sense of spontaneous creation and internal exploration, (often found in the titles of works) encouraging viewers to engage in a visual-meditative state where shapes and hues transcend their physical forms.

Regine Schumann explores light and color through fluorescent materials, creating immersive environments that transform spaces into ethereal realms. Her work emphasizes the extension of architecture into dimensions of vibration and spatial experience, stimulating emotions and imagination through an interplay of light and color.

Wolfram Ulrich pushes the boundaries of painting and sculpture with his acrylic-painted steel geometries. His innovative three-dimensional works challenge traditional perceptions of space and form, mirroring the cognitive processes of abstraction where the mind constructs and deconstructs realities, fostering a state of imaginative exploration.

Gerold Miller's minimalist concepts and frame-objects blur the lines between sculpture and painting, creating dynamic spaces for contemplation. His installations, characterized by their emphasis on color and form, stimulate internal dialogues and future-oriented imaginings, encapsulating the essence of imaginative thinking as a catalyst for creative thought.

Together, these artists create works that are not merely observed or perceived but are experienced on a sensory level. Their art intrigues the senses and engages the mind, making it perfectly aligned with the theme of "The Era of Daydreaming." Through their analytical and elaborate creative processes, they transform visual art into a profound sensory experience, shaping the world to come and orienting it according to our collective expectations and dreams.
