Gerwald Rockenschaub More Arrow
Gerwald Rockenschaub is an artist in Berlin. Since the early 1980s his production has repeatedly been associated with Neo-Geo art, though most of it clearly eludes such a rigid stylistic categorization. The artist’s work relates both to ideas and positions of modernism and to everyday phenomena, which it transfers into the present. Selected shows: 2012: Close-up – Gustav Klimt/Plattform – Gerwald Rockenschaub, Secession, Vienna; 2011: multidial, Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg, Wolfsburg; 2009: Promise vs. Reality, Villa Stuck, Munich; 2008: Swing, Kunsthalle Bern, Bern; 2007: documenta 12, Kassel; 2004: 4296 m3, Museum moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig Wien, Vienna; 2000: Variations on Classic, BAWAG Foundation, Vienna; 1999: funky minimal, Kunstverein Hamburg, Hamburg/ Le Consortium, Centre dʼart contemporain, Dijon; 1994: Secession Wien, Vienna; 1993: 45th Venice Biennale, Austrian Pavilion; 1992: Villa Arson, Nice; 1989: São Paulo Biennale, São Paulo; 1986: Origins, Originality + Beyond, 6th Biennale of Sydney, Sydney.
