Oscar Lebeck<\/strong> (b.1993, Hamburg, Germany) – studied at the Academy of Fine Arts Leipzig and the Glasgow School of Art. His work revolves around history, memory, and society – often by the use of photography, video, and archive collections, expanding the possibilities between the representation of space and models. He lives in Berlin and Leipzig.<\/span><\/p>\n Statement<\/strong><\/p>\n #soon<\/p>\n Projekt<\/strong><\/p>\n The project investigates the relationship between the visible and represented traces of memorial sites in the German-Polish border area. It pursues the idea of emphasizing the remaining structures of the sites by making them perceptible in a different way. Based on the narrative energy emanating from these relicts, a new reality is to emerge through the use of volume models. The spatial cubatures of the various areas of the Gro\u00df-Rosen concentration camp will be reconstructed in a smaller scale and placed in perspective on a photograph of the foundation walls of the camp, so that the viewer is able to re-establish the connection between inside, outside \u2013 and what used to be there. The so created spaces fulfill the classical concept of a place of preservation and memory, while at the same time reconstructing the social space.<\/span><\/p>\n
