I would like to report an exhibition opening in the IGZ, West Ring 303, Herne. The artist Kasimir Rajkowski (1936) and William H. Consumed (1933) are a generation. You have both the war and postwar period, met bitter but on different pages. This has influenced both.
Rajkowski was born in Poland and graduated from the Gdansk University to study art. Until moving to West Germany, he worked as an art teacher and freelance artist in Poland. He was mainly in the Eastern bloc, many international exhibitions.
1992 he moved to Herne and moved to smaller works on paper and collages. His style was and is abstract / informal, but precise in this sophisticated technology, issued for all work is visible. His wood collages are reminiscent of Schwitters.
Zehrt has learned a typesetter and later studied graphic design at the Folkwang School and the University of Wuppertal. He then spent many years working in advertising agencies and as a freelance graphic designer / artist in various functions.
The focus of his work is similar to Casimir paper work in, but also in sculptures and paintings canvas. It can be seen in its work to the close familiarity with his original job as a typesetter. The exhibited works are mostly recent and deal with the world of letters, he referred to as "Type-Art".
The exhibition runs until the end of December and that during the business hours of the IGZ Mon - Tue to visit. Well worth a visit if one is interested in very different views of art in contemporary art.
