What lies hidden behind the seductive shell? For almost 40 years Wilhelm Mundt has devoted himself to his series of works Trashstones. The starting materials are inorganic waste and residues from his studio, which the sculptor binds together into a solid form, presses into amorphous lumps, covers with glass fibre and, in some cases, paints. Through an elaborate process, unmistakable monolithic sculptures with a smooth, almost sensual surface emerge from these.
Wilhelm Mundt himself likes to describe his sculptural works Trashstones as lumps that formally recall erratic boulders. The group is the conceptual and formal anchor point of his oeuvre, to which he refers in installations, photographic works, drawings and video works. In terms of content, Mundt is concerned with the question of production and invention.
The exhibition ZUFLUSSREGELUNG brings together a concentrated selection of different works by the artist from several decades of his output. Gently, the sculptures in particular build a relationship to the exhibition spaces and connect with their original function as studio and experimental spaces.
