Wentrup is pleased to announce the inaugural exhibition at the gallery of Cologne-based artist Thomas Grünfeld. The artists' sculptural oeuvre is characterized by the use of unusual materials and a complexity rich in allusions and references. Since 2004, Grünfeld has been professor of sculpture at Kunstakademie Düsseldorf.
For the exhibition, Grünfeld conceived new sculptures that draw on his so-called fireplace series. These transfer the architecture of domestic open fireplaces into minimalistic upholstered sculptures. They were shown in 2016 at Massimo de Carlo Gallery in London and in 2017 in the private Dusseldorf museum Philara.
