The Body Within Abstraction
Overview
Intro
With works by Heidi Bucher, Eva Fàbregas, Kimsooja, Dóra Maurer, Bruce Nauman, Steven Parrino, Chiharu Shiota and Franz West.
In constructivist-concrete art, the human body was largely ignored – be it as a subject, or as an element in the production of art. The focus was on the autonomy of the line, colour and surface as artistic means, whereas figurative representations were considered illusionistic and arbitrary. The group exhibition «The Body Within Abstraction» at Museum Haus Konstruktiv playfully and critically questions this conventional reading. Eight internationally renowned artists demonstrate how the body can serve as both a unit of measure and thematic basis for minimalistically pared-down, non-figurative art.
Heidi Bucher, Eva Fàbregas, Kimsooja, Dóra Maurer, Bruce Nauman, Steven Parrino, Chiharu Shiota and Franz West: The exhibition brings together some big names, and is also a premiere, as this is the first time since moving to Löwenbräukunst-Areal that Museum Haus Konstruktiv is utilising all of its new exhibition spaces, in both the east and west wings, for a single presentation. In exhibiting these prominent artists, the museum is also celebrating its 40th anniversary.
