Channa Horwitz: COUNTING IN EIGHT, MOVING BY COLOR at KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin, from March 15 to May 25, 2015
Under the title COUNTING IN EIGHT, MOVING BY COLOR, KW Institute for Contemporary Art presents the first comprehensive solo exhibition of Californian artist Channa Horwitz (1932–2013), funded by the Kulturstiftung des Bundes (German Federal Cultural Foundation).
Featuring important works from all phases of the artist's career, the survey provides an introduction to her œuvre and insight into key series such as the LANGUAGE SERIES, SONAKINATOGRAPHY, RHYTHMS, and STRUCTURES. In addition, a selection of construction drawings and documentary material is made public for the first time, through close cooperation with the trustees of the artist's estate in Los Angeles.
The exhibition at KW retraces the development that led Channa Horwitz from figurative painting to conceptual abstraction, thus linking her œuvre to strategies that were being introduced in the same period by other minimal and conceptual artists.
