EXILE is pleased to participate for the third time in ART COLOGNE with a presentation of works by Vienna-based artist Kerstin von Gabain in dialogue with selected early paintings by German artist Sine Hansen. Working in either painting (Hansen) or object (von Gabain), both artists approach the physical and emotional dimension of the female body through tools, measurements, armour, organs or shelters. The core question of inner and outer self, of exposed shield or inner shelter, or exposed shelter and inner shield, is at once addressed as assertive strength and precious fragility of individual definition.
This dialogue presentation runs concurrently to the introductory solo exhibition of Sine Hansen focusing on paintings and works on paper from 1965-1970 at the gallery in Vienna. For more information on each artist please click on the respective image. For a complete list of works please →email the gallery.
Sine Hansen, (1942-2009) studied from 1961 to 1966 at Hochschule für Bildende Künste in Braunschweig (HBK). Following graduation, Hansen participated in numerous exhibitions such as Figurationen (1967) at Württembergischer Kunstverein, Stuttgart (with Horst Antes, Georg Baselitz, Fritz Köthe, Konrad Lueg, Sigmar Polke, Gerhard Richter, a.o.) or Aktiva '71 (1971) at Haus der Kunst, Munich (with Joachim Bandau, Thomas Bayrle, KP Brehmer, Konrad Klapheck, Jobst Meyer, RISSA, Reiner Ruthenbeck, a.o.). While successful in her early year, and always working actively, Hansen largely withdrew from the artworld in the late 1970s. Recently works by the artist were acquired by the Museum moderner Kunst (mumok) in Vienna.
Kerstin von Gabain (*1979) studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna until 2003. She has participated in solo and group exhibitions in Vienna and abroad, most recently in the Vienna Biennale curated by Marlies Wirth at MAK, Museum of Applied Arts, Vienna. In 2017 von Gabain received the Kardinal König Award in Salzburg. Her work is in the collections of Museum moderner Kunst (mumok), Museum of Applied Arts (MAK), and Belvedere, all Vienna as well as Lentos Museum, Linz.
