Ausstellung u.d.T.: Jessica Stockholder - Mary Heilmann : Gemälde aus der Sammlung Hauser und Wirth
Working at the interface between sculpture and painting Jessica Stockholder has, over recent years, developed a body of work of international significance. According to essayist Roland Wspe, "A little Alice in Wonderland is the way you feel in one of Jessica Stockholders environments." The artist uses cloth, metal grates, pastel flooring, and bright Lego blocks that colorfully translate a room into a bewitching three-dimensional painting one can walk into. This beautifully assembled catalogue documents Stockholders works created at St. Gallen Art Museum. Extensive texts illuminate the origins of the work, and an extended interview with the artist gives insights into her thinking and achievements.
