ANTJE MAJEWSKI

My Very Gestures

This multi-dimensional exhibition catalog documents internationally recognized artist Antje Majewski’s solo show in Salzburg, Austria. Majewski – best known for photorealistic, figurative paintings grapple with existential questions like friendship, love, masquerade and death – also expresses her interest in the psychology of individuals in relation to society and history through photography, video, film, installation and dance theater, all of which are documented here. In a profound essay, critic Dominic Eichler shows how Majewski’s work is “informed by a progressive form of feminism,” while author Ingo Niermann and curator Sebastian Cichocki contribute other insights. A conversation between the artist and art historian Tanja Widmann reveals some of the personal and philosophical concerns underlying her practice.
