PYTHONGALLERY
PYTHONGALLERY conceives a dual project at VOLTA Basel between Georg Kuettinger (b. 1972, Munich, lives and works in Munich) and Willy Verginer (b. 1957, Italy).
Willy Verginer works with naturalistic but at the same time provocative topics of our society. Verginer is internationally known for his wooden sculptures and has been showed at ArtFairs all over the globe. He grew up in the mountains of Italy therefore he is strongly connected to the planet and Nature. Despite all the beauty of his sculptures at the same time they provoque and encourage discussion.
Georg Küttinger, well know photographer, developped himself in a new direction. When taking photos, reality becomes static out of its context- Illustration, broken down into pixels and dots, as an information carrier. The works consist of several layers: photo carriers and several Plexiglass sheets.
The manually embossed Plexiglas plates react formally to the photomontages, by mirroring and breaking their structures. The superposition of the different layers creates depth and leads to Interference.
