Gerold Miller
New Works
WentrupGerold Miller is renowned for his minimalist and geometric works that explore the intersections of space, form, and perception. His works are characterized by precise execution and clean lines, often employing industrial materials like aluminum and lacquer. Miller's sculptures and wall objects blur the boundaries between painting and sculpture, challenging traditional categorizations and engaging viewers in a dialogue about the nature of visual experience. In his second exhibition at Wentrup, titled New Works, Miller unveils two new series to the public for the first time. The first series, known as the 'corner' works, builds upon “Set”—Miller's most extensive and successful group of works, which occupies a central position in his oeuvre. In this remarkable development, Miller shifts focus within the series, concentrating on the corner as a key design element. He employs a striking diagonal to define a prominent triangle, transforming the remaining rectangular surface into an asymmetrical pentagon. This use of the diagonal as a core element creates dynamic tension, inviting viewers to explore the interplay between surface, form, and space in a novel way.
