Description
Katharina Grosse (b. 1961) has created walkable artworks in three historical spaces within the Albertina in Vienna. The shimmering colour fields extends across the walls, ceiling and floor, crossing spatial and conceptual boundaries. Their power, intensity and sheer size is overwhelming. The catalogue documents the three-dimensional image world with detailed photos of the installations and pictures from the studio.
Expansion and permanent boundary-crossing, freedom and autonomy form the basis of Grosse's oeuvre. Her creative work is experimental and unpredictable, like untamed thoughts. Numerous photos from the artist's personal archive provide an insight into her working methods and sources of inspiration, as well as the processes by which she develops her ideas.
