Katharina Grosse
It Wasn’t Us
June 14, 2020–January 10, 2021
Hamburger Bahnhof–Museum für Gegenwart, Berlin
www.smb.museum
Katharina Grosse will use the historical hall of the Hamburger Bahnhof and the outdoor area behind the building as the site for a new work that radically destabilizes and renegotiates the existing order of the space of the museum. Incorporating the floor of the hall and Styrofoam sculptural elements as a pictorial ground, her painting will extend beyond the building’s walls and into public space, inviting us to reconsider our habits of seeing, thinking, and perceiving.
