German artist based in Cadaqués, Daniel Zerbst works mainly with classical techniques such as drawing, painting, collage but also with recycled materials -arte povera- as well as analogical and digital techniques, in a sort of personal competition between human tools and the robotics he has at his disposal. Thus he creates his particular world, based on pictorial tales of parallel realities, in which poetry, pornography, innocence, power, capitalism and anti-system come together. Between civilization and savagery, beauty and violence? Narcotic dreams in a golden cage. Utopias and dystopias, romanticism and realism, rawness, comedy and drama.
