About me
Gerrit Groteloh (gergro)
Gerrit Groteloh's series „Run's Poetry“ are abstract images made from nylon stockings. Compositions that do not refer to something seen; rather, they are developed out of the logic of the layers of fabric. The tension and dramatic quality contained in these images is built out of the shimmering fore- and backgrounds, positive and negative forms, light and shade. These surfaces seem complex and three-dimensional; they change with the point of view and even imply movement.

Gerrit Groteloh -- SCULTURA!
http://issuu.com/butschi/docs/scultura_
has been for sale for some time, as you have seen. The maintenance and ongoing development to keep our non-profit and idealistic platform for contemporary art running and safe from hackers etc. costs money that is no longer there. Because of small investments that are necessary now and the running costs, we will have to shut down with a heavy heart at the beginning of summer on June 21.
