ANNA FASSHAUER – NEW WORKS

Posted on 2014-08-25

Drywall construction profiles formed and wound to large sculptures, either coloured or partly lacquered, flexed sheet metal pictures, this is how Anna Fasshauer presents herself in her first exhibition at Galerie Nagel Draxler Berlin. In a rather open process, she accurately transforms material into forms, putting them into space. She neither designs nor draws, does not order the complete construction. Fasshauer produces herself in an energy consuming act of bending, flexing and fumbling around with the large and heavy works.
The pictures are results of this process-oriented working method as well. Their format is classical, their topic is the surface, their expression is abstract. Everthing on display here is what it is and it is hand-made. Neither the so-called speculative materialsm or realism nor the post-structural correaltion are the matrix.

Exhibition runs through to September 10th, 2014
