Tom Múller is part of a new generation of artists who have
achieved a delicate balance in their artwork by representing a cultural
past inside the global future. Tom Múller creates paintings
and installations that meld isolated elements of design, architecture
and art into universal forms and shapes. These simple images become
signifiers not just of the universalized building forms found around
the world, but also of the process of globalization that has existed
for millennia. With Stadium, Múller explores the world of
playing fields and how they have become images of global design.
International regulations, standard surface control and many other
factors have enabled the sporting world to be practiced almost identically
around the world. Stadium provides the viewer with the experience
of becoming a spectator and a player simultaneously.
