Synopsis

Spacious staging of transience and transformed favourite pieces. An accentuated insight into the work of the sculptor Thomas Rentmeister The internationally renowned sculptor Thomas Rentmeister grew up in Münsterland: in a house with red clinkers and pointed roof - where fox and rabbit say good night. While minimal and conceptual art set the tone in the not so far Rhine metropolises, the family Rentmeister nibbled chips and flips to the ZDF hit parade, Nutella came to the table for breakfast and in the bathroom was always ready for Penaten cream. To this day, the petty-bourgeois home in Dorfstraße 23 in Reken Thomas Rentmeister provides impulses for his sculptures and space-consuming installations. To this day, he draws from the world of goods and from a childhood characterised by measure and rural freedom - but also from recent art history. Working with simple, geometric structures, with principles such as repetition and accumulation is part of Rentmeister's approach as well as an unexpected material-clash, slapstick and pop.
