KATHARINA GROSSE
HOLEY RESIDUE
11 February - 26 March 2006

Since the 1990s, Katharina Grosse (b. Freiburg, 1961) has built up a repertoire consisting of large painted canvasses and bright acrylic colours sprayed onto both interior and exterior walls, ceilings and floors. It is a way of working related to Colour Field Painting and Abstract Expressionism, between Impressionism and graffiti, performance, process and installation art. She investigates the limits of painting by using different concepts belonging to contemporary and traditional artistic expression, in which making and presenting paintings continues to occupy an important place.
