Stefan Gugerel
Hessische Kulturstiftung Residency
2002/3
Stefan Gugerel is a German artist who works with sculptures and site-specific installation to explore our relationship to public space. Stefan takes existing spaces as his starting point: his work is then a reaction, supplementation or interpretation of these situations. For the installation The yes yes no no living room sculpture, created in his London studio, the artist used the remains of protest posters that he collected last autumn after the anti-war demonstration ‘Not in My Bame’ in Hyde Park.
Hessische Kulturstiftung, Germany
Acme has managed a residency programme on behalf of Hessische Kulturstiftung since 1995, located on Lyal Road, Bow, E3. Residencies are awarded to artists for a period of 12 months, and the size of the accommodation enables the artist to bring their family or dependents for the length of residency. Based in a residential area populated by many artists, the house is well situated for access to other arts spaces and central London. Residencies are open to all artists from Germany. Applications and selection are dealt with directly by Hessische Kulturstiftung.
