Laura Sachs
conversations
7 February – 7 March, 2020
Opening: 6 February 2020 | 7 pm

After a successful collaboration at Genius Loci 7 and Art Berlin last year, SETAREH X presents Laura Sachs' first solo exhibition conversations.

Laura Sachs works in a unique way with bodies of images composed of volatile and solid materials. Accentuated with metal strips or completely enclosed in aluminium frames, the canvases assert themselves as multi-perspective objects in space.

At first glance, Laura Sachs' works appear serial, and, upon closer examination, differ from each other as unique painted pieces that provide references to their underlying work processes. The balanced and clear compositions formulate a convincing position and expand the postminimalist visual discourse.

Laura Sachs (b. 1985 in Darmstadt) first studied philosophy and art in Frankfurt a.M. and went to the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf in 2013. Coming from painting, she continued her studies in the sculpture classes of Hubert Kiecol and Gregor Schneider. Under the latter she graduated in 2018.
