REINHARD REITZENSTEIN, the eminent Allegorical Minimalist has inverted trees and immortalized moments in the history of the natural world in bronze since the mid 20th century.
His permanent bronze works are situated in public and private gardens across North America and Europe. Although Reinhard’s work is not political, every time Justin Trudeau enters Rideau Hall he is first greeted by a REITZENSTEIN water feature which was commissioned as a permanent work by former Governor General Adrianne Clarkson.
Since the turn of the 21st century Reinhard has served as the Head of the Sculpture Program at SUNY at Buffalo, NY. In 2019 he inaugurated the Art Gallery of Hamilton’s year-long artist in residence program where he introduced the realm of questioning that has become Allegorical Minimalism. The same year, just outside of NYC, he and sound artist Gayle Young, his long-time collaborator and life partner, orchestrated a sonic installation for the arboretum at Caramoor Estate.
Reinhad’s work was featured in the inaugural exhibition at the Barbara Edwards Project Space, Ecologies of Landscape, curated by Mark Cheetham. The show is showcasing artists featured in his 2018 publication, “Landscape into Eco Art: Articulations of Nature Since the 60’s. published by University of Pennsylvania Press, the cover of which is REITZENSTEIN’s Transformer. Via this iconic work – a one-hundred-foot inverted tree suspended between two hydro-electric towers – on a cliff – above a hydro-electric dam – in northern Quebec.
On today’s episode Reinhard talks about his newest Covid project, NFTs and more.
