Liliane Lijn. Arise Alive (English), Fester Einband

Klappentext

Lijn has been working at the interface of visual art, literature, and science for more than six decades and has created an extensive oeuvre that includes sculptures, installations, collages, paintings, videos, and performances. Lijn's multimedia practice has its origins in the kinetic art of the late 1950s as well as in her exploration of Surrealist ideas, ancient mythology, and eastern philosophy. Even her earliest works reveal an interest in unconventional artistic materials-an interest that continues to this day. In 1961, Lijn made first works from Perspex, in which she experiments with reflection, movement, and light.
