At Hebel_121 Basel Clemens Hollerer has installed Unattainable, 2013.
Working in a variety of mediums including sculptural installations, photography and video, Hollerer’s art is characterized by its attention to detail and fast reactions to existing situations within an architectural setting.
Clemens appropriates existing, mainly minimal vocabularies and matches them with his own alerted perceptive systems, constructing a new matrix of elemental schemes. He follows ordinary forms, found geometries and structures, denoting their life and functioning within a given existing pattern of life and reality. His gestures are strong and his genuine courage and curiosity to make visible this what is still obscure or hidden will be completed by a set of formal tools that will guarantee a further fluency of expression. His recent works deal with architecture in a state of destruction at construction sites and fenced areas.
