Catalyst – 17”x20”. A polymer painting by Wolfgang Stoerchle (1948-1976) while a student at the University of Oklahoma. This painting was exhibited at the now defunct Contemporary Arts Foundation in Oklahoma City for their annual benefit art show in 1967.
A pioneer in performance and video art, Wolfgang Stoerchle was an important influence for many artists in both fields . He was born in Baden-Baden in 1948, imigrating to Canada when he was 16 years old . He then moved to the United States and studied at the University of Oklahoma . Stoerchle came out to California in the late 60's to the University of California at Santa Barbara . There he worked on the environmental-sound pieces and performance-sculpture . It was at Cal-Arts that he began working in video, developing his body pieces and psycho-drama performances . Wolfgang moved to New York for awhile working exclusively in video. He also spent some time in Mexico, and became increasingly interested in mysticism . His last performance was given in Los Angeles in 1976 in John Baldessari's studio . A few months later he died in an automobile accident in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
I have had contact with persons holding Wolfgang's original art and film. We are working toward digitizing his photographs and films. Please look for an update of our progress.
