Description
The twin brothers Gert and Uwe Tobias are among the most famous graphic artists of their generation. This catalogue presents older and new works, offering the first survey of their unique artists' cosmos in a long time.
Gert and Uwe Tobias are known for re-inventing the traditional technique of the woodcut for the present day. The artist duo has also created a multifaceted and multi-layered oeuvre embracing collages, drawings, sculptures, wall paintings and installations, alongside woodcuts. The expansive installation developed for the rooms at the Kunsthalle gathers the highly varied media employed by the artists into an integral whole.
The catalogue illustrates not only their artistic exchange with traditional genres such as still life, portrait or interior, but also how, through their creative imagination, Gert and Uwe Tobias enlarge their world with the help of endless metamorphoses, opening up new and impressive imaginative spaces.
