Hans Some

At first impression metal shows itself to be the material of consistency and solidity, but it is also the material resistant to any changes. To create a sculpture from an unhewn block you have to employ a lot of energy and strength. This creative process is the continuous confrontation of the artist with the material.The essence of my work is this dialogue with the material reaching and exceeding its own limits.The experimented resistance – the resistance of the object – is an essential character of the significant experience of personal truth. With this exploration of the resistant opposite you can start a dialogue and experience yourself.

Vita

Hans Some *1968 Munich, Germany, had his first appeareance in public in the "Cafe Schuldstruktur" with several installations and readymades.  Discovering the inexhaustible possibilities of metal design and expression in the studio of the sculptor Stefan Herzog, Munich, on the basis of techniques like casting and forging, which has left its indelible mark all the way throug to his most recent works.  This motivated him to study from 1994-97 at Arts & Crafts School in Munich, where he passed the final project with distinction.For over sixteen years he is living & working as a sculptor with his family near Alicante, Spain, where he installed his studio in 2000. 
Participation in individual & collective exhibitions with work included in several public & private collections in Spain, Germany and the UK.

phague node xtd.

stainless steel, sphid|phague|glia series This work sensualises the two contrarious dualities in one – phague: devourer. Congestion, densification, introspection– but showing just a tendency to expand, too. Volume and its disolution, compactation vs. release and devolatilisation, motion through tension, space through omission, fracture vs. high polished beauty. With infinite options of sights & positions. So what is its condition? Where is the turning point, when inside turns outwards? Like inverting a sleeve...what will be left in the final stage? And my interest doesn't stop with completing the object, the completed work comes to existence again with its interelation with the environment

dogs like us

"dogs like us" adored/tributes - will denominate a new series, revisiting some masterpieces that have come along and left traces over the years...Trying to explore its essence, getting them into a actual or personal context for me & my environment as sensible constructs. So - with my recent "dogs like us" just now in 2020 - there is the ever-present Alberto Giacometti, as well as his brother Diego. "Le chien", 1951, used as a template to depict the straydog he encountered late night as a metaphor for the modern family-construct: the adored doggy as pseudo substitute child. Followed by earlier works just like Anton Böcklins "Toteninsel", my hommages to "Benidorm" & "Manhattan 2011" ...and one day in future my contribution to Deborah Butterfield, Lynn Chadwick, and so forth...
