Art That Intrigues the Senses
Florian Auer (b. Augsburg, 1984; lives and works in Berlin) explores the constructed nature of reality, testing the limits of simulations. His work addresses technology, spirituality and materiality combining techniques such as 3D modelling and hand-made craft. Auer's particular interest concerns the tensions between physical experience, perspectival perception, and the ideal vision projected by the virtual image. In making art, he always also keeps an eye on how it will be framed by digital imaging processes and online channels and consciously toys with these media's high-gloss distortions.
Auer, who studied at the Munich Academy of Fine Arts and the Städelschule in Frankfurt am Main, where Tobias Rehberger was his teacher, has exhibited at S.M.A.K., Ghent, NAK--Neuer Aachener Kunstverein, Kunstverein Braunschweig, the Albertinum, Dresden, and elsewhere. His first monograph presents works from the past, present as well as future projects. Through a conversation between Asya Yaghmurian and the artist the book will provide a poetic narrative with text and images.
