Artistic work

Rita Rohlfing's works of art are located in the border area between sculpture and painting. In addition to panel paintings , she creates object-like wall and floor elements and conceives spatial installations: “Even if her works, with their vital interest in color and color effect, are strongly anchored in the field of color painting, they always present themselves with their emphasis on material and spatial effect as three-dimensional objects and as such have a sculptural reference; in large format, they even expand into veritable room installations. "

Panel paintings

Rohlfing's panel paintings are mostly very large, irregularly shaped and painted monochrome in bright red tones that radiate intensely into the surrounding space. The shaped canvases hang on the wall like pictures, but their shape creates the impression of three-dimensionality . This becomes clear in her work RoT. If you stand directly in front of the work, it appears like a normal rectangular mural. However, if the viewer moves and changes his position, he realizes that the canvas is thicker at the top than at the bottom and the character of the rectangle becomes questionable. It looks as if the picture surface arches forward into the room. Rohlfing's panel paintings are neither pure mural nor pure sculpture, but are an expression of the artist's cross-genre way of working.

Room installations

In her room installations, Rita Rohlfing combines elements of minimalism , monochrome painting and color field painting . She often combines various elements such as panel paintings, photographs and spatial installations into a total work of art . The use of color in her objects is an integral part of her staging, mostly about different shades of red that have an intense effect on the surrounding space. In her individual objects, the colored elements are often hidden under matt acrylic glass panes. You get a diffuse tint and look "foggy". The viewer cannot see which elements are responsible for the color effect.

With her installations, Rita Rohlfing redesigns existing rooms in such a way that a kind of “second room” is created that overlays the existing room, a “virtual room” so to speak. If you look at the names of their exhibitions / installations such as tightrope act , seeming , transparencies and ambivalence , many areas that fascinate Rohlfing are already described. It is always about the fact that nothing is certain or is irrevocably certain. Rooms change as you walk through; depending on your point of view, the viewer sees other parts of the installation and becomes part of the installation when walking through the room. It affects his whole body-body-soul being. People locate themselves in a spatial structure, among other things, through the angles that tell them where the walls are, the boundaries of the room, etc. Rita Rohlhfing uses this basic knowledge to design her spatial installations in a targeted manner by using acute and obtuse angles that the viewer experiences irritations, perspectives are shifted and the rooms appear larger, higher, narrower or even completely disappear. The room installations by Rita Rohlfing developed from room-related installations to installations that not only determine the entire room, but also change its architecture for a limited period of time, to presentations that use a complete museum with all its possibilities: “Rooms are for Rita Rohlfing is no longer just a mirror surface and virtual extensions of her work, the occupation of real space combined with the creation of color spaces has become part of her artistic concept. "

"Air Tones" (1999)

Rohlfing's work in the Mülheim an der Ruhr art museum encompassed the entire 16 meter deep and 12 meter wide room. As soon as the visitor entered the room, he saw five three-meter-long matt acrylic glass panes hanging one meter above the floor , which seemed opaque. Another row of acrylic glass panels followed at a distance of three meters, which were also suspended from the ceiling, at the same distance as in the first row. When entering the room, depending on the viewer's position, there were views of this second row. Another three meters away was a row of aluminum panels, which were suspended from the ceiling and were painted in monochrome in various "red states". Pure vermilion , orange and pink tones radiated into the surrounding space: “The painted aluminum panels seem to float in the room and are 'blurred' into diffuse light tones by the reflection in the Plexiglas panes. An overall sculpture develops through which the viewer moves and which repeatedly constitutes himself as he strides through the different spatial values ​​and makes the color red like a red fog, like a veil, just like an air tone tangible in the room Filter of the opaque, milky glass panes, the color is fanned out to a kind of room color, it loses its material quality and becomes - very appropriately the artist named the installation with this title - air tone that increases the vibration intensity throughout the room.

"Wire rope act" (2000)

In 2000 Rita Rohlfing was able to redesign the exhibition space in the Gotha Art Forum. It is an exhibition space that is very long and high. The room is spanned by an iron bridge, to which stairs lead on both sides. Rita Rohlfing created a walk-in work of art here: she installed 18 aluminum panels along the two side walls, 3 meters high and 1.50 meters wide, which emphasize the longitudinal axis of the room. Another 14 three-meter high steel girders were aligned parallel to this at regular intervals. Between these, she attached long steel cables that were anchored in the ground. As a result of these interventions, the space suddenly appears narrowed, the viewer locked in the given eight narrow passages - they dictate the direction of the steps. Other visitors to this installation can be seen, but closer contact seems impossible because one cannot leave the path: “The senses of those walking through, both their optical perception and their influence through their overall psychological perception, are caused by these linear controls or obscurities activated and stimulated to subjective associations. "

"Red Light District" (2002)

With her installation Red Light District , Rita Rohlfing went one step further. She not only used the available space for her installation, but also changed the entire architectural ensemble of the exhibition space for a limited period through her work. The “Old Rotation” is a room that was previously used industrially and has two floors and a staircase in the middle of the room that connects the two. Rohlfing designed 14.5 meter long and 4.4 meter wide boxes for this area, which completely covered the stairs and the basement. At the edges they were bordered with aluminum panels and the top was covered by a PVC film, which glowed reddish from the depths. On the one hand, the room was given a simple sobriety through the rectangular shape of the floor objects and the metallic appearance of the aluminum panels. At the same time, the reddish shimmering color radiation into the room gave it an "emotionally increased color". While the viewer walks around the installation, he sees the color changing in different shades of red and yet cannot see where the glow is actually coming from. For the viewer of the installation it looks as if the boxes have a mysterious inner life, a kind of infinite depth in which mysterious things happen.

"The virtual in the concrete" (2015)

With the Clemens Sels Museum Neuss , Rita Rohlfing had a complete museum for her staging for the first time. In her conception for the exhibition, she dealt with the “bulky architecture” of the building. It was implemented in 1975 by Harald Deilmann in post-war modern architecture . The massive concrete elements construct a space that exudes stability and clarity. In contrast to this, Rohlfing is particularly interested in the diffuse and puzzling nature of rooms, in the "uncertainty in the spatial experience" caused by light, colors and spatial irritation. It was therefore a special challenge for them to enable these spatial experiences despite the hard architecture.

Eleven of the 19 works of art were specially created for the museum. Objects, installations, photographs and a projection were used: “The artist, who has been living in Cologne for a long time, makes the museum dance with its very different room situations.” For the foyer with “the staircase made of block-like, cubic concrete elements”, Rohlfing designed a 12 × 6.50 meters large black and white projection held, "The Virtual in the concrete" (in German "The Virtual concretely" - connotes concrete in English and concrete ). It was projected onto the concrete structure of the stairwell and shows a picture from New York, a tall building with fire escapes, photographed by Rohlfing from an extreme soffit. This “superimposition” of the massive staircase with the small structures and lines of the projection counteracts the heaviness of the staircase: “With this targeted intervention, Rita Rohlfing apparently removes the constructive nature of the real architecture - that is, purely virtual - and allows a visual interplay of lightness and Difficulty, closeness and distant, large and small arise, which unfolds effectively between reality and projection, between the surrounding space and the work of art. ”The untitled spaces attached to the wall , objects made of frosted acrylic glass boxes , inside which are not exactly recognizable colored form elements, also have an effect that radiate into the room. Here, too, the position of the viewer decides which color tones can be perceived: "What appears almost colorless from a fixed position can turn into a surprising color experience from a different perspective."

Rohlfing realized the installation Apparently in the garden room of the museum . Matted acrylic glass walls, more than four meters high and two meters wide, emitted a red hue that could be seen from the inside and outside. A window thus became an opening between inside and outside that could be viewed from both sides, the color of which shimmered in various shades of red depending on the incidence of daylight. Another exhibition element was the large photographs entitled Apparent , which were 2 meters high and 1.25 meters wide. They show an obviously enlarged image of an indefinable something . Nothing in this exhibition is clear, sharply defined, clearly delimited. On the contrary, the boundaries between inside and outside become almost permeable “membranes” like in the installation in the garden hall; the wall objects glow in a wide variety of colors, but the visitor cannot make sure where the glow comes from, as the matt acrylic glass makes it impossible for him to see through; the photographed does not reveal itself to him in the photographs, no matter how close he looks at them. Everything in this exhibition breathes mystery and mystery and thus stimulates reflection on one's own perception: "Your work reflects the fact that we live in a present that has become incredibly complex and in many of its aspects incomprehensible."
