Beschreibung

Barbara Steppe’s many-faceted artistic practice owes everything to her interest in the everyday life of a variety of people, whether they are friends or people from various occupational fields. The participants minutely documented how they spent their day-to-day lives. Based in these miniature empirical studies, Steppe designed equivalent parameters of shaping. This method recalls scientific recording techniques based on the principles measuring, calculation, systematization, Steppe’s work in fact is submitted to a highly independent production process. The catalogue provides the wealth of her aesthetic methods, ranging from painting through textile objects, sculptures, kinetic objects to performances. text Birgit Effinger /translation Mitch Cohen
