ON WATER by Jeff Beer Location: German House, Lobby, 1st Ave. @ 49th Str., NY, NY 10017
Jeff Beer, born in 1952 in Mitterteich, Upper Palatinate/Germany, lives and works as freelance artist in Gumpen near Falkenberg, North East Bavaria. Right from the beginning his artistic conception was multilateral. Very early he attended to painting, photography, instrumental music, composition and improvisation. He studied at the State University of Music in Würzburg. Since the mid-eighties he engages in iron sculptures. Numerous prizes and awards. Concerts and exhibitions both at home and abroad, among others in Berlin, Cologne, Düsseldorf, Hamburg, Frankfurt, Nuremburg, Stockholm, Paris, London, Osaka, Madrid, Prague, Brno, Moskau, Krasnojarsk, Wladiwostok, Kaliningrad, St. Petersburg. For 25 years he has been taking pictures based on the concept of a continuous study of the sphere of life and perception. His WATER-cycle has been appreciated in more than 20 international exhibitions since 2006. "Advancing the anonymity of things with my camera, that is what I am actually interested in. The pulsating density and depths of things, as if they were alive. In their presence that is separated from outer time. To stir something that we know at heart. Life sentiment. Or something definite without a name." - Jeff Beer, "Grammar on Water", March 2006 The exhibition is accompanied by a catalogue of 52 colored pictures and 4 original texts by Ingeborg Ruthe, Kathrin Schmidt, Michael Donhauser and Jeff Beer at a price of $30.
