Exhibition
Frozen-in Tension
Contemporary Glass | Photography
April 29, 2010 to January 27, 2011
Tension and relaxation, strain and rest – the Alexander Tutsek-Stiftung in Munich dedicates this year’s exhibition to this complex of themes. Under the title Frozen-in Tension glass sculptures by significant international artists as well as works by the German photographer Jessica Backhaus will be on view. The title of the exhibition – a technical term from the area of heat treatment –is multilayered: It addresses the subject as well as the material of the works. The sculptures made of hot liquid glass, now cold and solidified, seem at first glance to rest in themselves. After looking at them longer or more closely, viewers observe that the state of rest, harmony, and calm turns into subtle anticipation, distraught anxiety, or an explosive emotional force.
