Angela Glajcar – White

An exhibitions of the Schleswig-Holstein Art Association

12 September 2014 to 8 February 2015

In 2014, the Schleswig-Holsteinischer Kunstverein presented a unique example of recent approaches in art with an artwork made especially for the exhibition. We chose the sculptress Angela Glajcar, who predominantly works with paper producing large, room-filling formats. The artwork showing in Kiel was made of 800 g/m2 heavy paper. It was monumental in its dimensions and impact, while at the same time very delicate; it united opposites such hard and soft, light and dark. Thus the works title White referred both to the color of the paper as well as the sculpture’s metaphysical meaning. Angela Glajcar’s powerful installation transformed the impression of the space in which it hanged and was closely interrelated to the Kunsthalle’s architecture.
