About the artwork

In this piece titled "Diver", Rainer shows us his ability to build sculptures that rethink the human form as a medium of artistic expression. While revealing a side of the sculpture, he conceals the other as one half of the form melts into the wall. Here, he takes liberties with a series of deliberate empty spaces giving the composition its levity: the sculpture appears like it is swimming into the walls, in open defiance of the laws of gravity and physics. The diver and its delicately balance form floats effortlessly. The feature is human but the essence is spiritual: the sculpture is in a shape of spirit passing through walls, flying and floating with delightful connection to the essence of abstraction.



About the artist

Born in Dusseldorf, Germany, Rainer Lagemann has lived in San Francisco Bay Area since 1988. Today Lagemann resides in Miami, where he creates modern metal sculptures from small steel squares, welding them into modern interpretations of the human body or abstract variations of contemporary sculptures. Trained as an interior architect, Lagemann arrived to sculpture later in his life, but his unique treatment of material and subject matter earned him immediate international recognition. Rainer’s works have been exhibited around the world, including Canada, Singapore, Europe, and dozens of world-renowned art fairs, and are also part of prestigious private and corporate collections
