Maria Hahnenkamp Livres

The Austrian artist takes a close look at the female body: she creates provocative impulses, contrasting well-known examples from art history with photographs of contemporary beauties or intimate parts of their bodies. Dressed alike in shades of red or white, feminine torsos yield a new and uncanny clean vision of the female physique. So-called "drill pictures," decorative in design yet "unwomanly" in technique, can surprisingly break out of their frames and float upon museum walls.
