In the Print Room of the Museum Franz Gertsch, the Swiss-based German artist Anja Ganster presents paintings and installations from the last three years. Entitled “Gezeitenreibung (Konstellation 6)” (Tidal friction (constellation 6)), the exhibition features small to mid-format works and a wall-filling piece executed in watercolour and gouache on paper as well as acrylic and oil on canvas. The works are woven together to create a collage-like installative whole. With this show, Anja Ganster proceeds with her “constellations” project. The exhibition was curated by Anna Wesle in collaboration with the artist.
