Berlin, 9 September 2009
A real insider tip in Tempelhof: the artist Susanne Montoro is presenting parts of her
“Optic-Design” work in public for the first time.
The sparkling ideas of the airbrush artist are to be seen at Café Pausini in Kaiserin-Augusta- Str. 78
until 31 October.
Susanne Montoro started to develop her special Optic-Design style at the beginning of the 90s. “But only now has the right time come”, according to the Swiss artist, who has been living in Berlin since 1991 and grew up in Basel.
The concept of “Optic-Design” presents the beholder with a confusing play of organic microstructures and technical macrostructures, in which the 37 year old artist accomplishes a futuristically suggestive symbiosis between biological and technical elements.
The role models of the “Berliner-by-choice” include, in addition to the “Alien” creator H.R. Giger, especially the drawer M.C. Escher and the Op-Art artist Victor Vasarely. And the relationship to the masters of shifting perception and spatial illusions is almost physically perceptible for the observer. The biomorphic artworks appear like a snapshot of a dynamic process.
The powerful color application of the airbrush technique enforces the impression of a continuous change in the pieces of art. Fascinating, elusive structures; a synthesis of biology, technology and architecture on the search for its own form.
However, the premise for this artistry is proficiency in the art form itself – the airbrush technique. The clients of Susanne Montoro include the sports car manufacturer Ferrari, as well as the German Parliament.
A speciality of Susanne Montoro is the artistic spraying of helmet-like headpieces. In this area she has gained cult status in various sports, be it with motorcyclists or ice hockey players of the Berlin Capitals.
Even Hollywood has woken up to the Swiss artist with Spanish origins. In 2005 she demonstrated her artistry in the Warner Bros. Production “V for Vendetta”. In the Wachowski brothers’ award-winning Matrix successor she created the distinctive porcelain mask of the leading actor Hugo Weaving. Most recently, her special color applications were to be seen in the Hollywood film “Speed Racer”.
The exhibition is open for visitors during the opening hours of Café Pausini!
Admission is free.
