Balkenhol, who has not shown his work in Spain for more than ten years, mainly uses wood to create his everyday figures and his sculptures bear visible traces of the carving process. The coarseness of the planed areas contrasts with the smoothness of the polished ones, generating a remarkable interplay of textures in his work. An eerie silence accompanies Balkenhol’s trademark and seemingly common figures. The artist invites viewers to try and discover the unique reality he creates. 520 8 $a German artist Stephan Balkenhol began his sculptural process of figurative woodcarving in the mid-1980s. By placing the human figure at the centre of his work, he reintroduced it to contemporary sculpture. Balkenhol operates on the boundary between the modern and the avant-garde while respecting the legacy of traditional and classical sculpture. Although his oeuvre displays a rather pessimistic attitude of humankind and society, it also shows signs that suggest hope. This catalogue features many of his freestanding, brightly painted wood figures, along with carved two-dimensional scenes and other objects. 600 10 $a Balkenhol, Stephan, $d 1957- $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Wood sculpture $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Wood sculpture, German $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Wood-carved figurines $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Human beings in art $v Exhibitions. 700 1 $a Frances, Fernando, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Gregori, Daniela, $d 1969- $e contributor. 710 2 $a Centro de Arte Contemporaneo de Malaga, $e publisher. $e publisher. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191217022851.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9D9828D8E96D11E8978F920F97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
