Alicja Kwade: die Notwendigkeit der Dinge

Abstract

"Alicja Kwade doesn't take anything for granted. She approaches her work with a relentless curiosity to challenge conventional understandings of the world around us. Through her diverse artistic practice, she delves into the essence of reality and examines social constructs. Her sculptures and installations, some of which is shown for the first time at Voorlinden, create immersive experiences that will challenge your perception and make you reflect on the nature of reality as you know it. Asking questions is at the forefront of Alicja Kwade's work. Indeed, her work begins where she no longer understands. Her work investigates scientific and philosophical concepts, challenging the very foundations of our comprehension of reality. Often veering towards the absurd and transforming commonly accepted assumptions into open-ended questions, she challenges the established norms and models that shape our daily lives, prompting a reevaluation of our understanding of existence."-- Publisher's website.
