In 1999, during <a href=\"https:\/\/artecontinua.org\/en\/project\/arte-allarte-iv-1999\/\"><strong><em>Art to Art IV<\/em><\/strong><\/a>, realised <a href=\"https:\/\/artecontinua.org\/en\/project\/montevideo-tobias-rehberger-1999\/\"><strong><em>Montevideo<\/em><\/strong><\/a>a work installed in Via delle Volte in Colle di Val d'Elsa.

In addition, Rehberger generously donated one of his works for the fundraiser <a href=\"https:\/\/artecontinua.org\/en\/arte-per-la-riforestazione\/\"><em><strong>\"Art for Reforestation',<\/strong><\/em><\/a> earmarked for the creation of the <em>Neophyte Park<\/em>an initiative related to reforestation.<br \/>\nIn 2024 he exhibited at the<a href=\"https:\/\/artecontinua.org\/en\/project\/umoca-under-museum-of-contemporary-art-cai-guo-qiang-jennifer-wen-ma-2005\/\"><em><strong> UMoCA<\/strong> <\/em><\/a>edited by <a href=\"https:\/\/artecontinua.org\/en\/artist\/cai-guo-qiang\/\"><em><strong>Cai Guo-Qiang<\/strong><\/em><\/a>, in Colle di Val d'Elsa, with the exhibition On\/Off in the Future.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Internationally renowned artist Tobias Rehberger continues to distinguish himself through his ability to reinvent the contemporary visual language, creating works that dialogue with space and the public.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Tobias Rehberger is one of the most influential and successful German artists of his generation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Born in 1966 in Esslingen, Germany, he attended the St\u00e4delschule in Frankfurt am Main before embarking on an artistic career in the early 1990s.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Through his different forms of artistic expression - sculptures, industrial objects and handcrafted articles - Rehberger explores the broader field of structural design and architecture, feeding on chance connections and unexpected encounters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">The concept of transformation is the central theme of his art. Rehberger focuses his research on processes of perception and awareness, temporality and the sense of transience, discontinuity and ambiguity. His installations have been included in both the 50th and 53rd Venice Biennale, and he has exhibited at the Whitechapel Gallery in London, the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam and the Museum Ludwig in Cologne, among others. In 2009 he won the Golden Lion as best artist for his sculptural installation in the cafeteria of the Venice Biennale. Rehberger teaches at the St\u00e4delschule in Frankfurt am Main, where he lives and works.<\/p>",
