Logan Galleries, San Francisco campus

Using collage, watercolor, and photographs, the German artist Dirk Stewen composes his visual arrangements in a way similar to poetry.

He sequences images and text in response to the textures of his materials, and his works often involve themes of concealment and blankness. Jumping Horse (2007), for instance, includes a page from a book describing an oil painting but does not reveal the name of the artist or an image of the artwork. The omission of this information creates what he calls a conceptual pause.
