Chris Reinecke

Abstandsmessung, 1965
Sculpture , 82 x 28 cm
acryl op doek

Towards the end of her studies in 1965, Chris Reinecke primarily made works based on the depiction of simple objects - such as an apple, a teapot, an armchair - and their spatial expansion through shadows. She abandonded the two-dimensional surface of the canvas and explored the relationship between the object and the space surrounding it. This phenomenological approach (which she undoubtedly encountered in Paris as a legacy of surrealism) would take on a more direct social interpretation in her later work.
