Till Stetzler

The 'galerie foto & art berlin' presents the exhibition "Stones" by the artist Till Stetzler. After completing his art studies in 1994, Stetzler explored not only painting but also the design of houses, spaces, and furniture. Since 2005, he has primarily focused on sculpture. His participation in the project "Steinmeile Lüneburg" (www.hal-atelier.de/Steinmeile.htm) brought him recognition in 2006 with his "Hommage an La Gomera."

At the beginning of last year, Till Stetzler launched the Baltic Sea beach project "Seen-sucht," in which he collaborates with fellow sculptors to gradually create a sculpture path along the coast.

"Working with stone forces me, in contrast to the complete design found in painting or interior design, to enter into a kind of dialogue with the stone and its individual character. Of course, I can impose my own shape on the stone – but I find it more exciting to discover what it inherently brings, what forms it already carries within. Making visible the delicacy that lies within an apparently unremarkable stone with a rough exterior is the challenge and pleasure that drives me to cultivate a patience that I often lack otherwise."
