Габриела е известна с монументалните си творби в много градове в света (Вашингтон, Тбилиси, Астана, Цюрих и други). Артистката ще покаже няколко серии скулптури, направени от неръждаема стомана, както и графики. От 1980 Габриела работи главно с неръждаема стомана. Скулптурният език на артиста смесва напрежение, баланс и сила. Геометрични фигури, триъгълници, сфери, прости линии, взаимодействат и създават специфичен визуален ансамбъл от форми и пространство. „Харесва ми предизвикателството да изразя това, което мисля, с най-обикновени форми и най-малко лична намеса", казва фон Хабсбург. Отделните елементи в скулптурната композиция образуват свое пространство, привличат пространство в собствената си динамика и трансформират околното пространство. Те могат да бъдат физически усещани с докосване и свободно премествани. Тези скулптурни елементи създават винаги ново, различно пространство. В изложбата има и няколко монотипии, отразяващи идеите на скулптурната композиция.
Габриела фон Хабсбург е родена в Люксембург през 1956 г. Тя е скулптор и професор по изкуствата. Тя е и бивш дипломат, като посланик на Грузия в Германия от 2010 до 2013 г.
"Точно както в музиката, паузата засилва израза. Скулптурата също въздейства чрез умишлено създадени празни пространства и кухини. Скулптурата е ангажиране с пространството" - Габриела фон Хабсбург
Габриела фон Хабсбург създава предимно нефигуративни скулптури от неръждаема стомана. Тя прави и литографии, като използва оригиналната занаятчийска техника. Всяка година тя организира няколко международни изложби. От 90-те години на миналия век насам тя развива активна дейност в няколко източноевропейски държави, като освен това работи в САЩ и други части на Европа.

Opening: 05.03.2024, 18:00 p.m.

Gabriela is famous for her monumental works in many cities around the world (Washington DC, Tbilisi, Astana, Zurich etc.). The artist will present to the Bulgarian audience a series of medium and small size stainless steel sculptures, together with unique graphic works. Since the 1980s Gabriela has been working primarily with stainless steel. The artist's symbolic sculptural language mixes tension, balance and strength. Half circles, triangles, spheres, simple lines, interact (interplay) and create a specific visual ensemble of shapes and space around shapes. "I like the challenge of saying what I need to say with the most reduced form and least gesture" says von Habsburg. All sculptures share a basic feeling. No form stands alone. They all keep contact with her forms either metrically (by touch) or visually (through congruence of geometric configuration). All the formal elements whether flat, concave or convex rounded to form and arc, fitted to form and triangle-all the formal elements form space, draw space into their own dynamics, bridge space and transform space. The pieces are to be touched, moved and experienced. These sculptures untie with the space around them and create a new space, a space of illusion. The exhibition also features several monotypes. These lithographic works are unique as the artist works repeatedly on each paper using different techniques. The monotypes are inspired and produced using the same composition as these of the sculptures and their shapes.
Gabriela von Habsburg was born in Luxembourg in 1956. She is a sculptor and an Art Professor. She is also a former diplomat as Ambassador of Georgia to Germany from 2010 until 2013.
'Just as in music the pause intensifies the expression. Sculpture also makes its impact through deliberately-created empty spaces and voids. A sculpture is an engagement with space' – Gabriela von Habsburg
Gabriela von Habsburg creates mainly nonfigurative stainless steel sculptures. She also composes Lithographs using the original craft technique. Every year she holds several international exhibitions. Since the 1990s she has notably been active in several Eastern European countries in addition to working in the US and other parts of Europe.
