Deißlingen-based sculptor Reinhard Sigle (*1954) has mastered the fine art of staging - and self-staging. For over three decades, the "swimmer against the current" has been causing a stir with his subtle installations.
Sigle prefers to work with construction or firewood: boards, slats, splinters and chips. He uses glue to join the often roughly processed fragments into fragile, three-dimensional structures - traces of the processing remain visible. Bright signal colors emphasize the object character of his works.
In the 2 room of Museum Art.Plus, Sigle is showing a blue cloud with "biological content" as well as an installation made of materials that are rather unusual for him - including a children's trampoline and anti-stress balls in the shape of a globe.
His works are worldly - they take up the reality of life in our time. As a critical observer, the artist takes a stand on the social problems of our time: against war, violence, exclusion and environmental destruction.
