| Description: |
Yves Netzhammer (*1970) is one of Switzerland's most renowned artists. His multi-faceted work comprises animations, video and sculptural installations, objects and drawings and opens up to a widely ramified poetic imagery cosmos. Digital drawings have been part of his work from the beginning: lines outlining surreal constellations drawn with utmost precision and clarity, lines that constitute a thought imagery as well as an imaginary thinking. Sometimes cartoon-like, sometimes near to total abstraction, playful, funny, and nightmarish at the same time, his digital drawings mix up different levels of reality by melting living creatures with apparatuses, interlocking the human and the thing, lining up parallel universes on a thread like precious stones As such, Netzhammer's digital drawings do apparently not show any classical ductus of hand-made individuality, yet in their precise and bizarre stylization they do all the more uncover the contradictions of contemporary, medially subverted authorship and subjectivity." |
| Synopsis: |
The digital drawings of Yves Netzhammer invite viewers into a fascinating world of figures that appear both human and animal, while simultaneously blurring the distinction between object and living thing. By turns nightmarish or playful and cartoon-like, the creative cosmos depicted in Netzhammer's drawings imagines an alternate reality, in which precise lines bind impossible combinations of objects with careful clarity. Netzhammer ranks among the most renowned Swiss contemporary artists, his work comprising animation, video and sculptural installations, objects, and drawings. Concave Thoughts is a comprehensive resource on his work and imagery as well as an opulent art book. |
