Tobias KASPAR

Visual arts

After studying at the Hochschule für Bildende Künste (HFBK) of Hamburg, Tobias Kaspar (1984, Basel. Lives and works in Berlin) attended the Städelschule in Frankfurt from 2009 to 2011. He has taken part in solo and group shows in international private galleries and public spaces, including: Artists Space, New York; Tramway, Glasgow; Künstlerhaus Bethanien, Berlin (2013); Palais de Tokyo, Paris (2012); Kunsthaus Bregenz; Hamburger Bahnhof, Berlin; Kunsthalle Basel, Basel; Kunsthalle Zürich, Zurich; Artspace, Auckland (2011).  In his work Kaspar conducts research on the interaction between image, text, form and content. His works (sculptures, installations, photographs) represent an analysis of the semantic connotations unleashed in the object-image relationship.  In Rome, Kaspar works together with Egijia Inzule on a project that involves the feminist activist Silvia Federici and the photographer and political activist Fred Lonidier, the Archivio Audiovisivo del Movimento Operaio e Democratico (AAMOD) and the Cinema Azzurro Scipioni.
