The Stuttgart artist Eva-Maria Reiner has created a textile space for the exhibition by arranging men’s shirts and women’s blouses according to specific principles. Her interest is not however in the fabrics themselves, but rather in their geometrical patterns and qualities. The artist chooses her starting material with the utmost care, according to formal criteria, before then presenting it on tables and in pictures. Using glass picture frames, she highlights the linear and check patterns on the material in exemplary fashion. »Pure Classic« is the title of her installation for MUSEUM RITTER, which consists of a spatial system based on textile lines and grids. The arrangement of her five »Tischordungen« [table orderings] and two »Bilderordnungen« [picture orderings] is guided by typological similarities and was tailored specifically to the space. In her artistically-analytic work, Reiner reduces her personal thumb-print to a minimum. Central to her works is always the concrete, already extant material, which oscillates between everyday object and art object and points to the body and its geometry. |
