Gerold Miller – New Works, WENTRUP, Berlin

Gerold Miller is known for his minimalist, geometric works that examine how space, form, and perception interact. His works are characterized by precise execution and clean lines, often employing industrial materials like aluminum and lacquer. Miller's sculptures and wall objects blur the boundaries between painting and sculpture, challenging traditional categorizations and engaging viewers in a dialogue about the nature of visual experience.

 

In his second exhibition at Wentrup, titled “New Works,” Miller unveils two new series to the public for the first time.

 

The first series, known as the 'corner' works, builds upon Set—Miller's most extensive and successful group of works, which occupies a central position in his oeuvre. In this remarkable development, Miller shifts focus within the series, concentrating on the corner as a key design element. He employs a striking diagonal to define a prominent triangle, transforming the remaining rectangular surface into an asymmetrical pentagon. This use of the diagonal as a core element creates dynamic tension, inviting viewers to explore the interplay between surface, form, and space in a novel way.

 

We are also showcasing works from the new Profile series, which evolves from Miller's earlier Anlagen works. While the Anlagen were primarily crafted from steel, the Profiles feature color-painted aluminum profiles. These pieces are open toward the wall, concealing their screw connections. Miller employs proven contrasts: Profile 1 juxtaposes glossy black against matte black, while Profile 2 and Profile 3 combine painted profiles with chrome-plated ones. This impressive development explores new facets of the ‘frame’ motif—a theme that marked a significant milestone in Miller's artistic journey.
