The Berlin-based artist, Robin Rhode (* 1976 in Cape Town), engages
in a variety of visual languages such as photography, performance,
drawing and sculpture to create arrestingly beautiful narratives.
Coming of age in a newly post-apartheid South Africa, Rhode was
exposed to new forms of creative expression motivated by the spirit
of the individual rather than dictated by a political or social
agenda. This new publication emphasizes the creative influence of
the Italian Art movement Arte Povera during the early sixties and
seventies on Rhode's hybrid street-based aesthetic. The creative
dialogue transformed urban landscapes and interior spaces into
imaginary worlds, compressing space and time, as two-dimensional
renderings become the subject of three-dimensional interactions by
a sole protagonist. Rhode's work reveals a mastery of illusion, a
rich range of historical and contemporary references, and an innate
skill for blending high and low art forms.
