Artist

„Wenn man Wiebke Baders Werke betrachtet, gewinnt man sehr stark den Eindruck, dass es sich hier um eine starke Neugierde, geradezu Experimentierfreude handelt. Es sieht nach dem Wunsch aus, den Dingen auf den Grund zu gehen, den Materialien nachzuspüren, ihre Besonderheiten zu entdecken und diese in einer Form auszuarbeiten. […] Für den Betrachtenden ist es spannend, sich mit dieser Neugierde der Künstlerin mitreißen und anstecken zu lassen.“
Ruth Hansmann, Kunsthistorikerin

Vision

Bogen I vor dem Audimax der Hochschule Aalen

Wiebke Bader creates sculptures that are also models for larger works. Larger than life, they could stand in public spaces or set a highlight in spacious gardens.
