Markus Schinwald

In the center of his artistic examination are the psychological exploration of space and body, eeriness and discomfort, the defective and the irrational depths of individual and collective existence. Schinwald focuses his observing gaze on the human body with all its deficiencies and on the sociocultural environment it is embedded in. Being involved by the artist in the spatial and temporal framework, the detached passive viewer becomes a protagonist, an active watcher who is given an opportunity to develop and pursue his or her own analogies and narrative strands. Exhibition: 54. Biennale di Venezia (4.6.-27.11.2011).
