About the Item

'Barfuß I' by Sabine Dehnel C-Print, 39 x 27 cm Ed. 10 Kodak Professional ULTRA ENDURA Surface F Glossy Signed and dated on Verso with black marker 2009 A sensual, critical combination of painting and photography Dehnel studied fine art and philosophy at the Academy of Fine Arts at the Johannes Gutenberg University, Mainz and received her MFA at Otis College of Fine Arts and Design, Los Angeles. Her artwork has been included in numerous international group and solo exhibitions in institutions such as: Museum Wiesbaden, Kunstverein Ludwigshafen, Museum Frieder Burda, Baden Baden, Columbus Art Foundation, Ravensburg, Ulmer Museum, Kunsthalle Winterthur, Muzeul de Arta, Timisoara, and gallerys MasArt, Barcelona, Morgen Contemporary, Berlin, Martin Asbaek, Copenhagen and Esther Woerdehoff, Paris. Sabine Dehnel (*1971) is part of the up-and-coming young German painting and photography scene. Her work blends painting, photography, and installation. For her, there is no competition between painting and photography, just a mutual admiration society. Her work, often focused on a female subject, transforms at every stage, from snapshot to collage to painting to the “living picture,” a constructed, temporary installation, before coming back to a C-print. The painting is thus returned to the photographic medium from which it arose. From this reconstruction, Dehnel develops installations, another generation removed, series of cropped images that either vary her subjects against unaltered backgrounds--one woman’s skirt changes pattern over and over--or show them as frozen figures against changing environments. Layers upon Layers: the inner-worlds of Sabine Dehnel Sabine Dehnel is crafty. Her practice is born in paint and then shifts into installation, sculpture, and photography. It oscillates between so many mediums that it feels more cinematic than artistic. A single painting is realized and then used as the basis for an installation which is then hand preened, cut and formed from textiles, paper, industrial supplies, and a complete tailor’s kit of materials. The work is then carefully documented and the final result is usually a large-scale photographic work. Dehnel is often in control of whole environments. Paper is made to look like pleated tennis skirts, or carefully built flowers, or a hand-painted “set” of a sun dappled mountaintop. In terms of sweetness and tone I am reminded almost of The Sound of Music. The most recognizable aspect of her work is when she transitions painting into photography. She creates a hybrid technique by layering paint directly onto her figures and then photographing them in such a way that the viewer is led to believe that they are looking at a painting. While she succeeds here in technique, she perhaps relies too heavily on this single tool. Dehnel is the kind of maker who belongs more in the directors chair where her full capacity and reach–I see it more in her tableau works–is greater. Where she flies highest and brightest is in her total domination of an idea. She builds a world, a life-size dollhouse for her tenderest fantasies of family and kindness. They are wholesome, and while they refer to the here and now, they are also otherworldly. The clouds are made of cotton and the seagulls of papier mache. Small and delicate feathers are made from heavy, sinking wires and well worn stockings–all part of an homage to a beloved friend she has lost. Every detail has been thoughtfully tended and still the work remains open and gestural. Dehnel bridges her dream life with her lived experience. – Berlin ArtLink
