Daniel Wiesenfeld

In general I don’t work in a certain style or technique, rather the look and feel of the work corresponds to the content I want to convey. Lately I’ve become interested in breaking out of the rectangular border, extending into space and building painting-objects that include different light sources with combinations of glass and oilpainting. My mostly figurative paintings and installations combine found material with invented imagery. I create narratives which deal with (self-)perception, memory and a sense of time on an individual as well as a collective level.

Daniel Wiesenfeld (*1969 in Buffalo, NY) studied painting at the Akademie der Künste, München (Diploma 1993) and Queens College, NY (MFA 1996). Since 2000 he lives and works in Berlin. His work has been shown at the Haus der Kunst München, Jüdischen Museum Berlin, Supermarket Art Fair Stockholm, Galerie Huuto Helsinki, Klowden Mann Gallery Los Angeles, Roulette New York among others. He initiated and co-founded the project space HilbertRaum in Berlin. Besides making art he has been working together with Peter Schulz on restoring and recreating stained glass windows.
