Experiments V · 4+8: Rebekka Kronsteiner

Rebekka Kronsteiner (*1996) is an artist who studied painting as a master student with Prof. Stephan Baumkötter at the Hochschule für Künste in Bremen until March 2023. Kronsteiner's work is characterized by the variety of materials used, such as latex, lacquers, paraffine wax and sheeting. The materials, most of which are industrial, relate to the urban environment that surrounds the artist or are borrowed from public space. The diverse materials attract Kronsteiner's attention because of their ever-changing form and their ephemeral nature. With the reuse of the materials, and a constantly ongoing learning process associated with it, the artist creates a counter-design to the waste of resources that occasionally happens in contemporary art (e.g. Julian Charrière, The Other Side of Eden, 2018).

For our video of the week, Dr. Dorothea van der Koelen, gallerist, art historian and president of the van der Koelen Foundation for Art and Science, met with Rebekka Kronsteiner for an artist talk in the exhibition space on the 1st floor of Cadoro - Center for Art and Science in Mainz. In it, the artist from Bremen talks about the inspiration for her work and what drives her creative work.

In addition, next Saturday, August 19, 2023, at 3 p.m., there will be a public artist talk with Rebekka Kronsteiner at Cadoro. We cordially invite all art lovers to attend the event, meet the artist in person and ask their own questions.
