Isa Genzken

Hallelujah

14 April - 19 May 2012

Zürich, Hubertus Exhibitions

Isa Genzken's work is a cacophonous riot of colour, material and form. She pulls from the geometries of modernist architecture, the aesthetic of Robert Rauschenberg's combines and the stark and severe ethos of minimalism and corrals these elements in to her own world, rearranging them according to her distinct set of rules. For Hauser & Wirth's final show at the gallery's temporary space at Hubertus Exhibitions, Genzken will present new sculptures and collages. These works reference the individuality of the real world, exploring the works' more human qualities of fragility and haphazardness.
