Roman Signer - Profile

Roman Signer's sculptures concept since the 1970s through by process, motion, spatio-temporal extension and the inclusion of natural forces shaping. In an artistic research, a kind of plastic basic research, is dedicated to the artist the energy potentials of nature and the physical properties of such familiar things as an Italian tricycle transporter or by water. But fire, rocket explosions and translated it into ephemeral sculptures and utilize their potential for energy transformation and deformation of tables, barrels, bicycles, etc. These everyday objects are a precise selected, numerically manageable repertoire on which the artist in ever new combinations accessed. Roman Signer is a sculptor and described his actions as sculptures, although these current nature. His work is a dynamic concept, the movement is at the center and it is the potential for change is created. In this sense, Roman Signer's work as a contemporary sculpture to understand the procedural process in the period and their recording media with photography and video comprise mainly. (Kunstraum Dornbirn)
