Amit Goffer is an Israeli artist currently living and working in Duesseldorf, Germany.
In the past few years, Goffer's work has incorporated installations and, more recently, painting. Key issues like
space, architecture, scale, and the observer's relationship to the work, are vital threads throughout his art.
Recurring themes in is work are also the everyday, social and political challenges of so many different
people, interests, cultures and religions coexisting together.
The works are concerned with generating, formally and metaphorically, a more comprehensive view of human
relations towards space and monumentality.Goffer's engages with the silence of the history of place, where only the structure remains and the dramatic events have already vanished.
In these recent works, the black foreground is silhouetted like a cutout memory of a skyline. An undefined
natural or urban landscape sits against the background, the whole representing a cosmic space that evolves powerfully behind the straight horizontal line.
