cabinet / STAUDINGER oskar (graphics)
17 July - 28 August 2021
The graduate artist Oskar Staudinger creates unusual artworks, inspired by the size of the Japanese woodblock prints. The pictures go immediately from the mind to the hand, without any namby-pamby non-sense [...]
He dislikes elaborate IKEA building instructions. [...] Instinctively, as in automatic writing, stroke by stroke, bizarre worlds emerge. The artist's ambidexterity is also unusual and, as he often emphasises, he always uses it when he is under pressure. They are windows into a bizarre world full of naked or unusual creatures.
