Corinna Rosteck's artistic works move between factual photography and
painting. They operate multilayered in the aesthetic span between the
non-determinable, changeable and ephemeral, between the technical gaze of the
camera and the gaze of the painter, between a momentary and perceptually
aesthetic reality.
Corinna
Rosteck (born 1968 in Hameln and raised
on Ibiza) is a freelance artist active in the spheres of photography, video art
and installation. Following scholarships to London, Paris, New York and Japan,
she now lives and works in Berlin. Since her first studies in Berlin with (Professor Kuno
Gonschior /Color Space Painting) and the master student diploma with Prof.
Katharina Sieverding, she explored a painterly informed photography since the
mid-90s with a variety of printing techniques. Supported by prestigious
scholarships and study residencies, she intensified an artistic exploration of
painterly, haptic photography in New York at the International Center of
Photography, in London at Central St. Martin's College of Art & Design, and
at the Cinematheque de Paris, in a search for for images
that create "disturbing constructed realities".She is a member of the
German Society Photographie, Cologne, the Deutscher Künstlerbund Berlin and
the Verein Berliner Künstler. She has successfully
realized art-on-construction projects with renowned companies such as B.Braun
AG, Airbus AG and accenture GmbH. Her works are presented in numerous
exhibitions at home and abroad as well as at trade fairs, including in the Arab
world.
" In my (moving) pictures I deal with the human being, his longings in connection with his body in the dance and the liquid.
Water and dance are the central themes of the
painterly photographic works of Corinna Rosteck. In her pictures she asks for localization,
change and dissolution, for dream and reality. From series to series, this
photographic painting process is refined, the perception is sharpened and differentiated.
Accompanying productions by well-known ensembles/dance
companies (such as the Pina Bausch Compagnie and the Staatstheater Kassel) and
in collaboration with solo dancers (Butoh), I develop my own performances and
installations dedicated solely to the creation of my work. The images are
projected onto the dancers and staged in the interplay of light, space and
music to create a total work of art. The
photoworks series that result are pictorially realized with a special surface
technique developed by me, the printing and lighting depth effect of the
metallic reflecting images evokes the aesthetic stubbornness of the works to
oscillate between weightlessness and materiality, visually enhanced by multiple
exposures, fades, traces of movement.
Corinna Rosteck's works are about depicting the always
endangered equilibrium as a passage through time.
