Sabine Finkenauer
Bio
Sabine Finkenauer (Rockenhausen, Germany, 1961) is a German artist based in Barcelona since 1993. She studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich (1981–1988), where she specialised in sculpture, before gradually turning her attention to painting. Her artistic practice encompasses drawing, painting and sculpture, exploring geometric forms, colour and minimalist compositions. She has participated in numerous national and international exhibitions, including shows at The Drawing Center in New York (2007), CAB in Burgos (2019) and Museo Patio Herreriano in Valladolid (2021).
Statement
Sabine Finkenauer's work explores the world of everyday objects, nature and characters associated with imaginary worlds. Through a simple yet rigorous formal language, situated between abstraction and figuration, she transforms these elements into essential forms. Her work combines poetry, irony and a sense of apparent naivety to question the limits of representation. Form thus becomes the central subject of her practice, establishing a subjective dialogue between the visible and the invisible, between image and meaning.
