Degrees of Abstraction
January 17 - February 7, 2012 Reception: Thursday January 19, 2012 6-8 PM

Press Release

Illuminated neon tones radiate throughout the works of Spanish-German multidisciplinary artist Andreas Strobel. Working with found objects, including recycled debris which he skillfully repurposes into poignant, colorful pieces, Strobel reincarnates the discarded or the unwanted into objects of graceful, evocative beauty. Through these pieces, the artist finds artful eloquence in even the most mundane and common of items or moments, reminding us of the inherent splendor to be found in the prosaic and predictable. Expression in art is innate to Strobel’s being; be it through found object assemblages or drawing and photography, he yearns to comprehend human existence. Articulating the myriad thoughts and emotions that stream through his mind, he extracts and abstracts the significance in the order, chaos, transcendence and passion of human life. “My relationship with art comes from the need to express and research into the thoughts and emotions that go through my mind,” says Strobel. “Only in the process of creation does my mind get some peace, when everything seems to match.”

Born in Madrid, Andreas Strobel lives and works in Spain.

Artist Statement

My relationship with art comes from the need to express and research the thoughts and emotions that go through my mind. Only through the process of creation can my mind find peace, when everything seems to come together. I find using recycled materials a challenge – where you see a car indicator, I see a set of colors, where you see a pile of dust, I see a picture. Every little detail is a constant challenge. My light boxes are a combination of new and recycled materials, together with colorful lights, resulting in beautiful pieces of artwork full of life. With my abstract pictures I try to express my ideas of geometry and architecture combined with text, leaving a message within the picture. A different kind of expression – but both are part of a continuous search for beauty and detail which is a way of understanding the world we live in.
