Silke Eva Kästner - Panta Rhei

Bys: Dhillon, Amrita, Schwabsky, Barry, Bauerle-Willert, Dorothée

Silke Eva K stner (lives and works in Berlin and Uckermark) developed her creative approach while traveling in India, New York, and Japan. She creates temporary on-site paintings as well as conceptual pieces in which the viewer comes upon prepared materials and becomes part of-- or even alters-- the picture. K stner documents these encounters in photographs or filmic traces out of which she compiles films in the editing suite. Probing the potentials of painting as communication, she foregrounds the active intervention and process. In the gallery no less than the urban scene, K stner places painting in relation to architecture in order to frame it in varying perspectives. The monograph offers insight into the foci of K stner's art; the works are grouped in chapters rather than arranged in chronological sequence. This structure makes the book a space of experience that gives the reader a vivid sense of her ephemeral creations.
