En savoir plus sur le livre
The publication showcases the evolution of Wiebke Siem, a Berlin-based object artist, from her early works to the present. It features a diverse array of examples, including serial works that transform toys, wigs, hats, and bags into abstract objects crafted from wood or fabric. Additionally, it highlights her "replicas" inspired by traditional furniture and costumes, as well as pieces that draw on childhood impressions and fantasies, creating psychologically rich spaces from used furniture and inhabited by whimsical figures. Siem's art raises questions about societal roles while consistently referencing art history. The catalog, designed by Siem herself, includes an introduction by Angelika Nollert discussing 'Other Worlds,' along with detailed essays by Melitta Kliege on gender in art, Penelope Curtis on Siem's exhibition at the Neues Museum in Nuremberg, and Hanne Loreck on 'False Fetishes.' Nollert notes, "Through her works, Wiebke Siem ironically, yet clearly shows us our origins and our very own socialization." This publication encapsulates Siem's artistic journey and her exploration of complex themes through her unique object-based practice.
