Andreas Blank creates sculptures that merge abstract, figurative, and conceptual approaches. He travels globally in search of rare stones, which he transforms through intricate craftsmanship into stylized or hyperreal everyday objects. By imitating functional forms in materials like marble, alabaster, sandstone, and limestone, he strips them of their original use and recontextualizes them as autonomous sculptural objects.



His work challenges traditional notions of value, visibility, and authenticity. Referencing the history of stone sculpture, once used for religious or political symbolism, Blank’s practice critiques contemporary material culture and reflects on (post)modern disillusionment. His sculptures are included in several major public collections, including the German Federal Art Collection and museums in Berlin, Basel, and Ulm. He has exhibited internationally at institutions such as the Picasso Museum Paris, City Museum Belgrade, Kunsthalle Weishaupt, and the Museum of Contemporary Art in Brussels.
