  • Über Kunstwerk
    Marienfeld’s series of ''Bondage-Objekte'' play with the subject of nudity without showing human bodies: ''The round objects in glossy black, white or also in pink are bound together with cords and suggest erotic tension.'' The rough rope cuts through the shining, polished form with unmistakable presence and finality that gives to this abstract nude an interpenetrating, ambivalent eroticism. The directness of the contrast that is created by the clash of forms and surfaces that belong to the figurative element and to the chaining medium raises questions of devotion and control, perfection and breaking.

    Edition of 7.
  • Über Künstler

    Stephan Marienfeld, a German artist hailing from Hattingen and born in 1966, has a unique artistic journey that has been profoundly shaped by his mentor, Tony Cragg, whom he studied under in both Wuppertal and Dusseldorf. Marienfeld's early career was marked by his role as Cragg's dedicated assistant and right-hand collaborator, a position that saw him translate Cragg's artistic visions into three-dimensional masterpieces, significantly contributing to the creation of numerous renowned artworks. Today, Marienfeld shares his wealth of knowledge and expertise as an educator at the Kunstakademie Essen.

    One of Marienfeld's notable series is his "Bondage-Objekte," which explores the theme of human vulnerability and sensuality, all without revealing the human form itself. Within this series, round objects, gleaming in glossy black, white, or even pink hues, are intricately bound together with cords, creating a palpable erotic tension. The coarse ropes, cutting through the polished surfaces, introduce a tangible and resolute presence, infusing this abstract representation of the nude with a complex and ambivalent eroticism. The stark contrast between the elements - the figurative shapes and the restraining medium - prompts contemplation about devotion and control, perfection and disruption.

    Marienfeld's artistic creations extend beyond the physical realm, embracing the interplay of light as a vital component of his work. Stripped of inherent meanings, his artworks mirror and refract light, casting shadows that encourage contemplation and respect for the subject matter. Marienfeld's sculptures seamlessly shift between the realms of representational and abstract art. They exist as tangible entities in the physical realm, interacting with light and space in ways that invite viewers to explore the depths of meaning and sensation.
