Räume schaffen: die Konstruktivistin Marlow Moss = Creating space : the constructivist Marlow Moss

Abstract

"In her artwork, Marlow Moss (1889-1958) explored space, movement and light across different media. This volume focuses primarily on Moss's pioneering yet timeless sculptures, which she also called 'constructions.' The artists Leonor Antunes, Tacita Dean, Florette Dijkstra and Ro Robertson present their own explorations of Moss's work and queer identity: through their creative approaches, they open up new connections to Marlow Moss and forge a powerful encounter between past and present"-- Provided by publisher.
