Krebber’s works often defy conventional form, avoiding the classification of ‘painting’ and often manifesting in a multi-faceted vocabulary. He adopts a variety of mediums including newspaper/comic pages and industrially produced coloured/patterned fabrics. His introduction of wooden stretchers and altered objects underlines an increasingly physical gesture to be read as an activity. Furthermore, Krebber expands the boundaries of the picture plane by allowing the painting to explore its environment in a sculptural manner. We can conclude this from the nature of display Krebber adopts, from traditional gallery hanging to the placement of works propped up against a wall.

To accompany Eichwald’s and Krebber’s display, Ruairiadh O’Connell’s contribution to the NOTICES section of the gallery will be present an image of a carpet from a Las Vegas casino. Designed aggressively, the carpet’s pattern aims to keep gamblers awake and functions here as a stimulus, a back rub, for visitors before they enter the main exhibition.
