Eugster || Belgrade is thrilled to announce A Muse and an Angel on a Graveyard by Tobias Spichtig. We look forward to welcoming you at the opening on Friday, October 18th 2024, at 18h.

Tobias Spichtig (b. 1982, Lucerne, Switzerland) draws inspiration from the world of fashion, theater and music, and works in a variety of media including painting, sculpture, installation and photography. His practice reflects upon the role of the icon in contemporary society, the idea of idolatry, as well as the gaze. Using everyday items such as sunglasses or depicting popular figures from the fashion world, Spichtig explores the intersection between the private and the public, the intimate and the glamorous, inquiring how society and the individual engage with the idea of seeing – and being seen.
His works have been exhibited internationally at the Kunsthalle Basel, Basel; Lafayette Anticipations, Paris; the KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin; the KINDL – Centre for Contemporary Art, Berlin; the Swiss Institute, New York; the Boros Foundation, Berghain, Berlin; the Kaleidoscope, Spazio Maiocchi, Milan; the Centre d’art contemporain – la synagogue de Delme, Delme; the SALTS, Basel; the Museum Folkwang, Essen; the Dortmunder Kunstverein; the Malta Contemporary Art, Valetta; the Museum of Contemporary Art in Belgrade, Belgrade; the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; the Kunsthalle Wien, Vienna; the Ludlow 38 (Goethe Institute), New York; the Ursula Blickle Foundation, Karlsruhe and the Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art, Rotterdam.
Spichtig lives and works in Berlin.
