Anselm Kiefer

Anselm Kiefer is a multi-disciplinary Artist famous for his large scale paintings, installations and sculptures. He also uses mixed media and found objects within his work.

Scale is extremely important, the large imposing paintings relate closely to the large and imposing nature of his scultpures and installations:

Bianca Chang is a young designer and paper artist based in Sydney, Australia. Inspired by the subtlety of tone on tone signage and the shadow-play of three-dimensional letterforms, she started working on a series of hand-cut graphic paper sculptures which she has since exhibited and continues to develop through gallery showings and private commissions.

The majority of her works are created by hand-plotting and cutting multiple sheets of 80gsm 100% recycled paper – minimising the impact of paper consumption and consciously transforming a typically disposable medium into a long term piece of art.
