Studio b. will be hosting a very innovative and interesting show of works by artist Stefan Daiberl and Sergio Poddighe.

Studio B is proud to announce a major show of 13 recent works by artist
Stefan Daiberl.

Bullets can kill, razorblades can cut, but as Stefan Daiberl demonstrates in
his show at Studio B these burdened materials can also be used to create
beautifully intricate sculptures.

Through his work, using a set of unusual materials, Daiberl investigates the
dual character of so many things encountered in life: beautiful and
appealing on the outside, but potentially dangerous in closer proximity.

The sculptures, often the result of many months of physically demanding 
assembly, function as an analogy for a reconstruction of an orderly world
out of the chaos of hopelessness.

Within the work, many metaphors for life experiences can be found: the flow
of things is broken here, but found again in another place; The world as a sphere of assembled driftwood is suspended by a precariously
thin steel wire; sometimes, it seems, peace can only be obtained by using force.

In a world driven by superficial distractions, void chatter and lack of authentic dedication, Daiberl attemps to 
create works of integrity dealing with the most basic elements of life itself: birth, death, love, fear and hope.

Sergio Poddighe who's art has been seen all over the world is shown for the first time in the United States. Studio b is so proud to have his works in our Gallery

“Wrecks resuscitated” derives from the desire to show a deteriorated reality in an expressive and somehow ”regenerative” manner. It is an attempt to restore force and new life to the helpless accumulations that have been discarded and abandoned by civilized man. The wrecks (conceived, used and thrown away by society) recount small stories, remind us of past desires, speak silently of the work of men who have built objects and things for uses that last for while, fade and die. Today’s refuse is yesterday’s creativity and its fate on this earth resembles our own.The result seems a kind of enthralling “resuscitative recycling”, suspended (from the formal point of view) between the figurative and the abstract, with some surreal traces. The artist’s other challenge is the search for an equilibrium able to provide an effective synthesis between the use of photography and graphic-pictorial manipulation.
