Thomas Georg Blank

Thomas Georg Blank  (*1990) lives and works in San Diego and Darmstadt. He was first trained in cultural and media education before studying art at the State Academy of Fine Arts Karlsruhe and in Mexico City.

Oscillating between research and speculative interpretation, Blank’s artistic projects explore how spatial and customary representations of individual and collective imagination influence the world we live in and vice versa. By creating multidirectional, spatial narratives he offers viewers a foundation for a reconfiguration and change of perspective.

His works and performative interventions have been part of numerous exhibitions, including in the House of Electronic Arts Basel, Historical Museum Frankfurt, Kunsthalle Darmstadt, Blue Star Contemporary and C/O Berlin. His work has received several awards and in 2018/19 he was a DAAD scholarship recipient for the Center for Human Imagination at the University of California San Diego.
