Eva Koberstein (Translated by Alta Vista)

If Eva Koberstein processes an elevator, she is not with the brush in the cab. Rather you send the orderer accurately measured aluminum plates, which she paints then with acryl colour in her studio in Berlin Neukoelln. About one week needs it for the preparation of a design, further three weeks for the execution. In the meantime the 33-Jaehrige has so much to do that she had to employ a female assistant.  At its work she estimates above all that art has here a comprehensible value. " I charge for conception, work time and colour, the orderer calculate its use . " Quite differently than in the art market with its irrational prices for " the large names " and hunger fees for the new generation.  Koberstein " sees " their main profession nevertheless in their activity as a free artist. Then it paints kleinteilige MDF disks and manufactures sculptures from burned tone Karikierend represents it thereby to situations from the everyday life. The ridiculousness of the motives contrasts it with quotations from the history of art. Studied Eva Koberstein at the academy of arts in Stuttgart. In the spring it issued Frankfurt on the type.  With the elevator painting Koberstein wants to open also " humans an acces to the art, which are not interested otherwise in it ".  Gladly it would connect the inauguration of new elevators with a sparkling wine receipt. It may be subordinated that so the satisfaction of the tenants was continued to increase and the Vandalismusgefahr was again reduced. Suggestion taz for an advertising slogan: " In the elevator of Mrs. Koberstein / art may be also once useful. " Contact: eva.koberstein@talknet.de  CHRISTIAN RATH
