Employed as an office manager in the former GDR, and working as a
self-taught artist, Ruth Wolf-Rehfeldt used her typewriter to
create patterns and abstract compositions with characters and
letters at the junction of Concrete Poetry, Dada, and Minimal Art.
Her linguistic explorations that she developed further into
collages later on, are often based on ambiguity. Published on the
occasion of the large retrospective at MINSK Kunsthaus in Potsdam,
NICHTS NEUES explores her typewritings, prints, collages, and
paintings in thematic episodes. Although Wolf-Rehfeldt discontinued
her artistic practice after the fall of the Berlin Wall, her art
has lost none of its relevance. In a poetic, idiosyncratic, and
often humorous way, the nonconformist artist explored themes such
as environmental issues, intellectual freedom, community, and
communication. Her sometimes subtle, sometimes more literal play
with words, meanings, and forms continue to reveal the unexpected.
