„IT IS”
Ursula Groser, Elisabeth and Albin Schutting
opening: Saturday, November 14, 2009 from 6:00 / 9:00pm
The exhibition „IT IS“ by Ursula Groser, Elisabeth and Albin Schutting deals with questions of existence on different levels (in different perspectives). Ursula Groser studies growth and biological processes in her installations and questions human identity in her video works. Albin and Elisabeth Schutting critically look into the validity of media reports. Their paintings are in communication with each other. This also applies to the series of paintings “victims of torture” by Albin Schutting which is in opposition to a video by Elisabeth Schutting.
