Jeroen Geel, Menetekel, 2012, Stuckmarmor, 60 cm x 60 cm x 5 cm, courtesy the artist
Is that stone, plaster or just modelling clay? It looks like marble cake! For a long time Lucerne artist Jeroen Geel (b. 1976) has been studying the possibilities of stucco marble, using it to make massive slabs which, seen from a distance, look like abstract paintings, with a slight nostalgic tinge. From close they develop a unique physical quality and reveal the way they were made: following an old technique, different dyed plaster doughs are kneaded, cut into slices, put back together and being polished after hardening.
The exhibition entitled Mons Fractus, the Latin name of Mount Pilatus, refers to Geel’s interest in his immediate surroundings and his fascination for myths and stories. Each year the city of Lucerne publishes a monograph in the series entitled Junge Kunst. For Volume 11, the Kommission Bildende Kunst Stadt Luzern chose Jeroen Geel. On the occasion of this publication the artist is showing his most recent works at Kunstmuseum Luzern.
