Rosemarie Trockel (English)
MMK Museum für Moderne Kunst, Frankfurt
Comprehensive overview of the work of one of the most influential German conceptual artists, including works from all creative phases, from the groundbreaking knitting pictures of the 1980s to new works created especially for the exhibition at the MMK.Her subversive aesthetic strategies have made Rosemarie Trockel one of the most renowned German conceptual artists of her time. Her "knitting pictures" gained her international fame in the 1980s, in 1999 she was the first woman to exhibit at the German Pavilion at the Venice Biennale. In her work, Trockel makes definitions, restrictions, paternalism, and violence due to gender visible and transparent. Working in a variety of media, Trockel directs her sociological gaze both at social regimes and political structures and at nature. While scientifically sound and precise, her observations always include her own critical and sometimes humorous gaze as a vital component as she not only captures but highlights ambivalences.Text: Quinn Latimer, Christoph Menke, Susanne Pfeffer, Cord Riechelmann.
