Place of residency
Frank Bölter, born 1969 in Lippstadt, began using his work to challenge expectations both inside and outside the academic art world while a student at the Münster Academy of Art from 1998 to 2003. Bölter’s projects are distinguished equally by their powerful poetic imagery and by the precision of their execution, often carried out under the difficult conditions of the public sphere. Moreover his projects are predicated on an impressive effort to communicate, which leaves traditional definitions of object and practice behind and expands his installations into the realm of the performative.
Discipline
Performance
Frank Bölter has become known especially for his participatory performances in the form of large-scale folding actions, in which three-dimensional folded objects such as paper ships are created and launched into the water. Currently, the exhibition space »ultra all inclusive« set up by Frank Bölter can be experienced at the Kunstmuseum Bonn. The museum space serves as an installation of his works, as an artist's studio, as a laboratory and workshop for museum guests. Characterized by the creative participation of the museum guests, which is possible at any time, the space is subject to constant change. Here, the audience becomes part of artistic processes in a communal experience.
