Katharina Grosse

Shadowbox

Walther König, Köln; Bilingual edition (2010)

“Exploding the confines of the canvas, Berlin artist Katharina Grosse (born 1961) makes installations with sprayed paintings that transform gallery and museum settings into colorful wraparound environments. No advocate of soothing effects in art, Grosse has built an oeuvre over the past two decades that is surveyed in this first retrospective volume.”
