Professional Report von Rafal Bujnowski

Rafal Bujnowski - Profile

For his exhibition "Wrong Works 2005 - 2006" Rafal Bujnowski is continuing his investigation of the correlation between the autonomy of the artwork as an object and its representation of an image. Bujnowski applies simple production processes and creates a kind of a visual instruction manual for the creation of the works. He thus conceptualises his artistic approach to the material facts of the artwork and denounces any idea of individual style. At Daniel Hug Bujnowski will present two installations that encompass painting, sculpture and photography. Bujnowski specifically chose to exhibit these two installations in Los Angeles, as he perceives Los Angeles to be the global capitol of success. For the installation titled "Wrong Works 2005 - 2006", Bujnowski has created surrogate paintings made from all of his "failed" paintings created between the years of 2005 and 2006. Using a press, the artist has compressed these older works into rectilinear blocks resembling conventional paintings. The second Installation on view is titled "Fishing Hook, 2007", which consists of a large pile of "rejected" works on paper, combined with one successful version, framed and hanging above the pile. This is Bujnowski's first solo exhibition at a commercial gallery in the USA. Bujnowski has peviously only shown at Art In General in New York City in 2004. Bujnowski is represented by Raster Gallery in Warsaw Poland, and both Johnen and Schoettle in Cologne and Ruedigger Schoettle in Munich, Germany. (Daniel Hug Gallery)
