ENCOUNTERS

Close personal contacts have existed for years with many of the artists represented in the collection. The concept of "Encounters" at the David-Hansemann-House has emerged from these connections. Here we discuss art, its impact and the interaction between the rules of art and the rules of implementation with employees, partners and external guests.

Rosa Loy | 2009

DAS WIE AM WAS: Rosa Loy's figurative motif could simply be interpreted as "women in a kitchen garden". However, the scene only appears clear at first glance. The women's 1950s-style clothing, the strong resemblance between the two working women and the title of the work "Growing the Four Elements of the Kitchen" are puzzling. The WHAT, which at first seems ordinary and unmistakable, is called into question by the HOW.
