Overview

Im Sprung ( Jumping ) is a temporary state that changes when covering the distance from A to B in an in between. Nothing is permanent. The artist Elisabeth Wagner creates nothing for eternity; most of her objects are made of paper and cardboard, and so the classic media of sculpture opposes their model. Her works accentuate the ephemeral in lasting simplicity. In this way Wagner devotes herself to the general major themes of her medium: the portrait, the monument, the fold, as well as the special simplicity of form and object: pine cones, hangers, dogs, pearls, or Bearskin. The publication Im Sprung also shows especially the artistic work process by Elisabeth Wagner and opens up a comprehensive insight into her work: sculpture, installation, and work in public spaces and their cosmos of reference. The works shown, which spanned a period between 1979 and 2018, are added with their models and inspirations visually, and illustrate their points of reference in art history.
