“Freezer Burn” Exhibition
Hauser & Wirth
This event has ended.
Hauser & Wirth presents ‘FREEZER BURN’, a group exhibition, organized by Rita Ackermann. This exhibition draws its title from the very antithesis inherent to the making and the experience of art.
Its premise is that artists are able to live through the most intense forms of life, and to transform them into subtle and strong sensorial realities; at the same time they can expand the most limited feeling or event and turn it into a world of its own.
Viewers find in the artwork a separate space, where they are given the possibility to go through moments of contemplation and emotion whose nature is profoundly different from anything else they can be exposed to in reality. And if they are ready to be exposed, these artworks truly alter them, and they go back to the actual world with a changed mind, changed feelings. They are offered the new birth of an intensified existence.
Every artwork is a new birth for the viewer, and a promise of survival for the artist.
