Nesa Gschwend - Memories of Textiles
Roland Scotti, Stefania Pitscheider · 2020
על הספר
Swiss artist Nesa Gschwend, born 1959 in St. Gallen, merges traditional crafts, such as embroidery, knotting, and sewing, with avant-garde and performative artistic techniques. Widely recognized as one of Switzerland's most distinguished contemporary artists, her art also combines craft with philosophy. Her textile works, material collages, videos, installations, and participatory performances transform individual lived stories into tangible metaphors for collective memory, for human existence itself. This new book, published in conjunction with an exhibition at Kunsthalle Ziegelhütte in Appenzell, Switzerland, features recent work by Nesa Gschwend. The essays explore her approach and describe her humanistic aspiration to transform existential questions into aesthetic reflection. Exhibition: Kunsthalle Ziegelhütte Appenzell, Switzerland (17.11.2019 - 15.03.2020).
