Katharina Grosse

plein air painting, abstract expressionism and graffiti art – Grosse creates works that are exceptional in both their technical execution and their emotional impact. As a renowned professor and numerous award-winning artist, she gives color a new meaning through innovative experimentation with textures and tools – such as the compressor-powered spray gun. In this way, she realizes her vision of combining bright colors in complex, transparent layers to create a fascinating effect of depth. The resulting freedom enables her to think on a larger scale; not

only beyond the limits of a canvas but also beyond the boundaries of imagination. Grosse teaches, lives and creates her works in Berlin. Her pieces which are exhibited by

renowned institutions such as the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Lenbachhaus in

Munich and the Musée National d'Art Moderne in Paris, are testimonies of an artist who has the courage to leave the museum and conquer the urban space. Grosse's works are known for their visual penetrating power. They combine zeitgeist and a sense of what is yet to be discovered. This combination creates worlds that revel in bright, irrepressible colors. Her works are not merely visual events; they are a vibrant whole that draws the viewer into its dynamic world and shows them new possibilities before their inner eye. Without taming it, Katharina Grosse abstractly and poetically captures the unlimited nature of her ideas. She gives freedom a platform without restricting it: the explosive power of her art continues to pulsate within the frame, creating sparks of unrestraint energy and inspiration leaping over to the viewer.

Katharina Grosse’s painting traditionally resists all forms of limitation – Untitled translates this approach into a format that gains strength precisely through its concentration. The screen prints retain the dynamism of her spray technique: gestural traces, transparent overlays, and fluid transitions make the image appear in motion, as though extending beyond its own boundaries. The technical precision of screen printing stands in productive tension with the immediacy of the gesture. In this way, the three works emerge as independent pieces while forming a compelling continuation of her oeuvre: the means may change, but the underlying principle remains. Color as an event, as expansion – now condensed into a form that intensifies its impact without containing it.
