This is the most comprehensive exhibition to date of work by Christiane Baumgartner. Exemplifying her preoccupation with the passage of time, not only in the subject of her work, but also embodied in its process, it consists mainly of works on paper, woodcut prints, and video.
Based in Leipzig, a city famous for printmaking, Baumgartner, acknowledges the tradition she springs from whilst developing an extraordinarily distinct practice. Her woodcuts, with their conceptual rigour and visual impact, very arguably are some of the most impressive art works being made in Germany today.
