Gregor Hildebrandt (born 1974 in Bad Homburg, DE) lives and works in Berlin, DE. Hildebrandt holds the professorship in painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich,DE.
Hildebrandt’s work makes formal reference to Minimalism while engaging primarily with concepts of cross-media transfers of music and poetry into visual art. Hildebrandt’s core materials are almost exclusively sound recording media, such as magnetic audio tapes and vinyl records, which he processes, or records something on them before using them on canvas, in photographic prints, or in expansive installations. For Hildebrandt, sound carries as an artistic medium, particularly in its original role as a medium for storage, thus fulfilling an important function: it enables the artist to add a further “invisible” dimension to his pictures. Playing with perception in this way is a major characteristic of his work; the picture is completed in the head of the viewer and made visible.
