Elsbeth Böniger

9.6.–13.7.2002

Elsbeth Böniger is an artist, whose work cannot be subsumable in a few lines. The occupation with beauty and the sensually charming is again and again forming a basis to her works. Those are entwined like a labyrinth. Painting, plastic in combination with painting, room installations – everything exists equally next to each other. The gallery exhibition, dedicated to the newest works of Böninger, shows thus far unknown works from the last few years. Her «Surfboards» und «Paletts» dare the string between «Readymade» and design and form the access in the exhibition. Works of different format are added in an installative way; random at first sight – on closer inspection totally composed.
