"Retrospektive covers more than three decades of Berlin-based Isa Genzken's career, with over 150 images, some of which are published here for the first time. Although she works in a variety of media, Genzken is best known for her architectural sculptures made from colorful materials, including mirrored sheets, fluorescent plastic and glass. A catalogue for Open, Sesame!, Genzken's retrospective exhibition at Cologne's Museum Ludwig and London's Whitechapel Gallery, this volume offers the most definitive look yet at an influential and notoriously reclusive artist. Featured are essays by renowned critic Yves-Alain Bois, curators Ulrich Loocks, Donna De Salvo and Ian White, an interview with Museum Ludwig Director Kasper Konig and contributions from artists Dan Graham, Wolfgang Tillmans and Lawrence Weiner."--Jacket.

Work Description
Isa Genzken is one of the most important, multifaceted, always surprising artists working anywhere worldwide. This is evidenced not only by her largescale exhibitions of recent years, but also by her repeated participation in the documenta in Kassel, the Biennale in Venice or Skulptur Projekte in Mu?nster. She is known for her enormous creative energy and the ability, implicit in her work, to repeatedly reposition herself with artistic curiosity. Her realized and unrealized outdoor sculptures and projects for the public space show the artist?s interest in space and the (in this case architectural) environment. Operating in the ?eld of tension between architecture and art, she questions principles of proportions and the relationship between object and viewer, and examines the ways in which perceptions of public space inform and condition our consciousness.00Exhibition: Galerie Buchholz, Berlin, Germany (2019).
