„Our time is characterized by technology that dominates our lives with complexity, helpful in many fields of work, manipulating in the media, monitoring in surveillance systems and deadly in weapons development."
FORTIS Art Edition MATTERN
As an artist who transforms these facts into contemporary images Michael Mattern since 1989 uses technical shapes and functional logics. That does not concern the exterior, the visible form of the technological subject, it's the inner incurrence process that produces the basis he works from. That is how he extends the constructivism of contemporary shapes.
