Works by Carolina Kreusch on the Exhibition Wall in Hall E

HP8 studio artists show their work

In March and April 2025, you can view works of Munich artist Carolina Kreusch’s work “Tageslichttropfen” on the Exhibition Wall in Hall E.

Carolina Kreusch’s works have an immediate, direct appeal. From he very first encounter, they appear very much accessible. As you get closer, you realise that they are hybrid creatures. Her works have a capricious, delicate side. Some mutate into bombast and can be either fragile or robust, depending on the mood. It is the artist’s special talent to give her objects what appears to be a life of their own, to instil in them a sense of self-confidence.

The colours, the three-dimensional forms, all this follows a primal desire for communication. Her repertoire: true glamour and fake glamour, firm tradition and mysterious origins, simple and expensive materials, haute couture and DIY. Profoundly poetic, her sculpture-and-painting hybrids have no ambition to explain the world; they make the world a better place through their vitality and are themselves a special world of their own. They create themselves with the power and pleasure of exuberance and are down-to-earth at heart. (Johannes Muggenthaler)
