Dieter Detzner was born in 1970 in Aalen, Baden-Württemberg and studied at the Hochschule der Künste (Academy of Arts) Berlin. His work was shown in public museums among others at Today art, museum. Beijing, ZKM Karlsruhe, Kunstverein Bielefeld. He also showed, in numerous galleries, for example Galerie Tanit Munich, Neu Berlin, Nourbakhsch Berlin, Truelzsch Berlin, Max Hetzler Berlin, Gourvennec Marseille, Corty Paris and Madder 139 London: Dieter lives and works in Berlin, and his art work is space related. He likes to involve the audience in the work so it is possible for the viewer to experience oneself in a new way

His works concern themselves with the appropriation and perception of spatial relationships that he had previously implemented in sculptural objects, installations and above all, in his reliefs. Detzner actively involves the viewer in the complexly arranged work of art directly by allowing him to enter the space of art he has created on two different levels. In doing so he intentionally blurs the boundaries between inside and outside, since the cube is both a part of the overall artistic arrangement in the exhibition booth – and thus an object presented inside it – as well as an exhibition space that contains pictures hanging on its walls at the same time. Detzner produces tension by placing corporeal space in a complex relationship with the incorporeal (the pictures), whose conceptual center contains plastic forms (the reliefs) that are attached to the surface.
