BARTSCH MALTE
In his works, Malte Bartsch makes use of everyday objects, forms and events, which he skillfully re-conceives. He creates situations and spaces that playfully question the existing social and economic system. On the one hand, he calls for critical reflection and at the same time overwhelms the viewer with a childish joy of irony and imagination. And somewhere between the self-optimizing search for meaning and turbo-capitalism, the antennae for beauty and transience have been lost. Both flare up again in a welldosed manner in Malte Bartsch’s works.
