Christine & Irene Hohenbüchler

  • 26.05.–17.07.2004

From May 26 to July 3, 2004 the Galerie Martin Janda presents Christine and Irene Hohenbüchler’s third solo exhibition. Continuing their intensive exploration of the relationship of architecture to fabric, the artists develop an installation in which they combine watercolors, drawings, photographs, spatial records and videos to create one complex production. The references to buildings by Rudolph Schindler, Albert Frey, and Ernst Plischke, as well as anonymous architecture also allude to — beside the fascination with the buildings — parallels between form in architecture, designs for living, and textile products.
