entstanden sind, kann man feststellen, dass sie sich in einem Spannungsfeld
von streng gebauten architektonischen Plastiken und freien, expressiven
Formen bewegen. Immer wieder bewegen ihn räumliche Probleme, beschäftigt
er sich mit dem Verhältnis von innerer und äußerer Form, von Innen und Außen.
Damit setzt er sich mit einem der zentralen Themen zeitgenössischer Plastik
auseinander. Gerd Reutter hat für seine Auseinandersetzung mit räumlichen
Problemen sehr unterschiedliche Formen gefunden. So assoziiert z.B. die Plastik
„Ende und Wiederbeginn“ aus dem Jahr 2002 eine aufgebrochene Frucht und
zeigt so interessante Bezüge zwischen Innen und Außen auf. Sie besteht aus
einer ovalen Schale, die zur Hälfte geöffnet ist und Einblick in das Innere er
Plastik mit seinen expressiv bewegten Formen erlaubt. Angeregt wurde er zu
dieser Plastik durch die Lektüre des Buches „Universum in der Nussschale“
von Stephen Hawkins und in der Tat erinnert das Innere der Arbeit auch an
die bewegte Strukturen einer Nuss.

Gerd Reutter is a contemporary German sculptor. Since 1953, Gerd Reutter has made his home in Mannheim, following a journey that took him through various places in Germany, Switzerland, and France. During that time, he used to be a painter, applying weatherproof coatings to the wooden structures on the onion towers of the Jesuit Church. In 1989, he co-founded the cultural association "Industrietempel eV" with friends and family members, and he continues to be an active member to this day. It wasn't until after many years of running his own grocery business that he embarked on his artistic journey, exploring clay modeling upon reaching retirement age. In 2003, the Regional Council of Karlsruhe acquired his sculpture titled "Open End."
Gerd Reutter's ceramic sculptures position him within an artistic lineage that traces back to the early 20th century.By utilizing clay as his chosen medium, he skillfully crafted sculptural works that stood as entirely unique and imaginative creations, thus liberating ceramic sculpture into a distinct and individual art form.
