Life

Beate Schroedl-Baurmeister lived in Bamberg until she graduated from high school. From 1972 to 1978 she studied at the State Academy of Fine Arts in Stuttgart , from 1974 in the sculpture class with Rudolf Hoflehner . At the same time, she began studying art history at the University of Stuttgart . In 1978 she completed both of these with the first state examination. She then studied free sculpture at the Berlin University of the Arts and in 1983 became a master class student with Joachim Schmettau . She finished her legal clerkship in 1985 with the second state examination. She then worked for three years as a scholarship holder in the Senate Ateliers Am Käuzchensteig in Berlin-Dahlem. She has lived in Wuppertal since 1988. There she maintains her workshop and studio.

In 2003 she was awarded the Lorenzo il Magnifico Prize at the 4th Biennale for Contemporary Art in Florence. She created the sculpture Schwung , which has been presented annually to the winners of the Wuppertal Business Prize since 2003 .

plant

It is characteristic of Beate Schroedl-Baurmeister that she works in groups of works. She dedicates herself to two overarching topics: people and nature. She is known for her abstract stainless steel sculptures, some of which are six meters high. She discovered steel as a material early on. She used structural steel to develop preparatory work for the later sculptures until she found her real design element in stainless steel.

At the beginning of her artistic work, the focus was on figures and heads, whereby she mainly worked in plaster of paris and ceramics. Their formal language became increasingly abstract and reduced. She interprets the human body through lines and arcs and focuses on aspects of movement. Since 1999 she has been developing series of works and installations on motifs from nature. She reduces grasses to their formal basic structures and transfers the three-dimensional idea gained in this way into the materiality of her material stainless steel. The grasses and stalks, which seem to bend in the wind, serve as a metaphor for society that reacts to new challenges without breaking. Her sculptures are always related to the outside space and in resonance with the landscape, like the grasses in Schloss Dyck near Jüchen.

Since 2007 she has also concentrated on urban space, integrating motifs from nature into an urban environment. The rhythm, the spaces and their relationships to each other, as well as the tension between the material and the real space, are the questions that she addresses in her sculptures. Dynamics, momentum and vitality are the impulse.
