Fabian Treiber

German artist Fabian Treiber is dedicated to questioning perceptions of reality through depictions of interior and exterior spaces. He approaches these compositions formally, rather than narratively and in so doing produces environments that are at once constructive and dissolving. As he describes, the works “seem not quite right, but are just right.” This conscious break posits that what is supposedly false and constructed, is in fact the essential quality of a painting. Windows and doorways provide glimpses of landscapes and morning skies, while interior staircases and halls expand his pictures, embracing a cinematic suggestion of movement, elongation, and narrative.
