Summary
Tobias Pils's pictures are paradoxes. Every artwork is at once process and product, gain and loss, imperviousness and transparency, plan and coincidence. Lines, graphs, and various types of textures, are combined with mechanical and organic forms. Figuration is suggested, however, a clear reading is hindered. What remain are set pieces and fragments that evoke arbitrary metaphorical connections. Pils forgoes chromatic colors, and heightens his concentration by working exclusively in gray tones, form an entity within his oeuvre. The catalogue is published on the occasion of the solo exhibitions by the Austrian painter at Galerie Gisela Capitain, Cologne and Eva Presenhuber, Zurich, both in 2015. It is complemented by works of the same creative period and a text by Heinz Liesbrock. 0Exhibition: Galerie Eva Presenhuber, Zürich, Switzerland (21.02.-25.04.2015) / Galerie Gisela Capitain, Cologne, Germany (30.05.-29.08.2015).
