Isa Genzken: New Works

Isa Genzken: New Works, will feature some twenty sculptures of individual figures and figural groups representing artistically alienated self-portraits of the artist. The “actors”, as Genzken styles them, wear items from her own personal wardrobe edged with decorative materials and supplemented with articles of protective clothing. The figures are moreover camouflaged with reflective sheets of synthetic material or rendered silent with multicoloured adhesive tape.

Since early 2000, Genzken (b.1948, Bad Oldesoe) has been working increasingly with consumerist objects, combining them with industrial materials as well as photographs and fragments of images from the popular media. She treats these individual elements as set-piece components of our contemporary world, which she brings together to create abstract and surreally narrative constellations.
