Camill Leberer's works negotiate the boundaries between painting and sculpture. His most important work materials include iron, paint and glass. Using these materials, the artist examines formal manifestations such as light and space, dynamism and calm, as well as openness and unity in two- and three-dimensional work areas. In addition to his prominent sculptural oeuvre, there are also drawings, paintings and photographs. In his two-dimensional works in particular, the categorical separation of surface and space is dissolved and the surface itself is understood as containing space. By using transparent and reflective surfaces - made of glass, plastic or metal, for example - Leberer consistently incorporates real space into the picture surface. Leberer's sculptures also open up space from flatness. Using orthogonal frame structures, the artist mostly constructs cuboid objects from rectangular surface elements. On the basis of these sculptures, Leberer examines the space and questions the conditions for ideas, perceptions and knowledge of space. Everyday familiarity with the space is up for grabs and explores new perspectives for an unfamiliar event space.
