Brent BIRNBAUM
1977년 댈러스에서 태어난 브렌트 번바움(Brent Birnbaum)은 댈러스, 뉴욕주 암스테르담(Amsterdam, New York), 그리고 뉴욕시(New York City)를 기반으로 활동하고 있습니다.
브렌트 번바움의 작업은 세상 곳곳에서 발견된 오브제를 탐구하는 것으로 시작됩니다. 그는 예술적 맥락에서 사용되지 않았지만 새로운 가능성과 강력한 변화를 지닌 재료를 찾아내는 데 중점을 둡니다. 그의 목표는 관객을 놀라게 하고 매료시키며, 현대 미술에 대한 대화를 확장하는 것입니다.
그가 사용하는 재료의 익숙함은 그의 작품을 폭넓은 대중이 쉽게 접근할 수 있게 하며, 유머 감각은 이를 한층 강화합니다. 번바움은 정신적, 육체적으로 자신을 도전하게 만드는 프로젝트에 몰두하며, 때로는 압도적인 양의 물품을 모으거나 특이한 재료를 수집합니다. 그는 미술사와 레디메이드 오브제에서 영감을 받아 일상 속 숨겨진 관점을 발견하고 이를 창조적으로 표현하려 노력합니다.
