 Banausic #5, 2006 Robert Scheipner Banausic Plane Space enthusiastically begins its fifth season with an installation by Robert Scheipner, his New York debut. This exhibition, the culmination of Scheipner's working in the space during the month of August as the gallery's fourth annual summer artist-in-residence, will be a multi-media installation. Titled "Banausics," the installation will implement robotics and video projections as means to create drawings through the run of the exhibition. Activated by the sound of the videos, the urchin-like structures, pegged with graphite, move and bobble atop sheets of paper to make incredibly rudimentary, but systematically beautiful drawings. Schooled in his hometown of Essen, Germany, Scheipner now resides in Berlin. In addition to his residency at Plane Space, Scheipner has held residencies in Schöppingen and Essen, Germany, as well as having received a fellowship from the Berwick Gymnasium Art Gallery in England. He has exhibited his installation work widely in both solo and group shows throughout Germany. He has participated in various shows internationally as well.
