Description
Gisela Stiegler is a sculptor and fine-artist whose main raw material to work with has been polystyrene for the past 10 years. Over those years she has been developing a fascinating evolution and perfection of her technique and the treatment of this delicate and cutting edge contemporary material. The pieces are colored or lacquered in silver, white, blue, steal or bronze. This is when the pieces enter into conversation with the ‘other’. They become another kind and fake a long gone time as well as another material and weight, appearing like architecture or monoliths. Gisela Stiegler (b. 1970, Austria) lives and works as an artist in Vienna. She holds an MA from the University of Applied Arts in Vienna, a degree in Photography from the Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam and a degree in painting from the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna. In her work Stiegler refers to movements within art-history and examines at how they can be envisioned today (e.g. carving techniques from an old Austrian rural tradition or opulent baroque carving).
