Ivan Geddert's Spatenprobe: Sculpture between Body, Space, and Action
The exhibition Spatenprobe at BLOOM in Düsseldorf brings together a selection of new sculptural works by the Berlin-based artist Ivan Geddert. At its core is a contemporary examination of work that perceives sculpture not as a static object but as a physically and spatially experienceable situation.
Sculpture as a Trace of an Action
Ivan Geddert's artistic practice explores different forms of staging the body. His sculptures and installations appear independently while simultaneously recalling props, stage fragments, or remnants of an already occurred action. This creates an open dramaturgy: the exhibition space becomes a resonance field between object, movement, and imagination.
Between Materiality and Performance
Geddert's works connect plastic presence with performative and theatrical ways of thinking. In earlier projects, sculptural elements were related to voice, language, music, and stage action. This proximity to performance expands the classical concept of sculpture and directs the focus to material, body, sound, and the temporal dimension of seeing.
An Exhibition for Close Looks
The title Spatenprobe opens an associative space between physical labor, archaeological trace-seeking, and the beginning of an action. The exhibition invites visitors to grasp forms not only visually but also haptically and imaginatively. In the exhibition atmosphere of BLOOM, volumes, surfaces, spatial effects, and the subtle tension of unspoken stories encounter one another.
Art Historical Context
Geddert's work is situated within the context of an expanded contemporary sculpture that intertwines object art, installation, and performance. His works inquire how bodies are staged in social and cultural situations and how language generates meaning, but also creates misunderstandings. The exhibition thus connects aesthetic experience with questions of perception, communication, and cultural education.
Conclusion: Sculpture as a Lively Art Experience
Spatenprobe promises a concentrated art experience for all who wish to encounter contemporary sculpture beyond purely decorative forms. The exhibition opens a sensory dialogue about body, material, action, and space. Anyone who wants to experience the aesthetic experience of current installation art directly should discover Ivan Geddert's new works live at BLOOM in Düsseldorf.
