Dive into the Visual World of Gert & Uwe Tobias at Noon

The thematic short tour at the Kunstforum Ostdeutsche Galerie offers a focused look at the multifaceted work of Gert & Uwe Tobias. During the lunch break, a compact art experience unfolds between woodcut, collage, drawing, and object art – precise, surprising, and aesthetically rich.

A Museum Discussion with Artistic Tension

The brothers Gert & Uwe Tobias have been working together for about twenty years, developing their works from a repository of folklore, folk art, and art historical references. Their visual language combines ornamental echoes from Transylvania with surreal forms, mysterious figures, and a consciously open narrative style. This tension is what makes the exploration of their work so appealing: At first glance, the pieces appear accessible and vibrant, but upon closer inspection, they reveal fractures, irritations, and art historical depths.

Woodcut, Collage, and Spatial Effect

The duo's trademark is their large-format color woodcuts. The artists saw their printing blocks into fragments and reassemble the individual elements like a puzzle when printing. This creates flat color structures with painterly quality that have a powerful impact within the space. Complemented by collages, typewriter drawings, and ceramic sculptures, a layered exhibition experience emerges, oscillating between graphics, painting, and installation.

The Kunstforum as an Appropriate Resonance Space

The Kunstforum Ostdeutsche Galerie, with its focus on art from Eastern Europe, is an ideal venue for this presentation. The collection, the exhibition space, and the architectural ensemble in the city park provide a special atmospheric framework for the exhibition. For visitors, this creates not just a short tour, but a condensed cultural educational experience with a clear reference to origins, memory, and contemporary art.

Why a Visit is Worthwhile

This thematic short tour offers a concentrated approach to one of the most independent positions in contemporary graphics. Those who appreciate pictorial signs, printmaking, and curated mediation will experience a small but intense art format with high aesthetic density. Be sure to visit live and discover the distinctive visual world of Gert & Uwe Tobias on-site.
