Sabine Hornig by Nicholas Baume

Sabine Hornig (b. 1964; lives and works in Berlin) has earned international acclaim with sculptures, photographs, and architectural interventions that interweave image, perspective, and space in distinctive ways. Her works feature translucent pictorial planes on glass panes; integrating these sculptural elements into the setting, she creates environments in which meaning unfolds as the viewer allows his gaze--and himself--to wander. For her new works, which engage with architecture, the artist superimposes enormous photographs on entire façades and concourses.This publication is the first to put the focus on Sabine Hornig's art in three dimensions, detailing her process from the building of sculptural models and the combination with transparent photographic layers to her creation of works in public settings. It showcases her largest installation to date, at LaGuardia Airport in New York City, which she discusses in a conversation with Nicholas Baume, director and chief curator, Public Art Fund, New York. Mark Gisbourne analyzes Hornig's complex practice in an essay from which the book takes its title.
Erika Maxim-Lehmpfuhl is the wife of Christopher Lehmpfuhl. Mamuka Bliadze is the curator of Kornfeld Gallery. Mark Gisbourne is the former president of British Art Critics Association and author of more than twelve books.
