Statement
Anja Schwarzenbach is a very smart but reserved artist, very critical of the current development of the art market and puts great emphasis on trust and honesty. We were allowed to work with the artist since 2004 for various projects. This resulted is a friendship that allowes us for the first time ever to show works by her at the upcoming artnewyork. In the years 2004 and 2005, Anja Schwarzenbach contributed works for our pop-up exhibitions LICHT FELD 2004 and 2005.
The artist is currently working on the digital development and the sometimes absurd forms of communication that were created by the “unicorn” player – information in the now spread all over the world. She uses simple dialogues between for ex. two quarreling people exchanging via sms or weird tweets by Donald Trump. Anja Schwarzenbach takes also her own communication texts, embroiders the messages on fabric and „stores“ them in plastic bags, in which we to store pills and other stuff. The Tweet (May 2017) by Donald Trump „Despite the constant negative press covfef“, which has caused a sensation worldwide and no one really understands. She takes over and turns it into a „goblin“.
What is sent in seconds as a text message, the artist produces in a traditional craft technique which takes a lot of time – also with time to think … A great way to connect the present and the future in terms of spast traditions.

Dear friends. I would like to draw your attention briefly to an exciting project. LICHT FELD Gallery launched the art project #thecoronacase "The art of the crisis". With the support of cR Werbeagentur AG, Basel and a international jury. LICHT FELD Gallery starts to create a time document about the "virus" from as many artists as possible and motivate them to upload their views on it in the form of a poster on our homepage. We think you too know artists who might be interested! Then go ahead and please share. Detailed information about this and who is on the board can be found here: www.lichtfeld.ch Thank you very much for telling a friend and or maybe you got your own statement?! ... See MoreSee Less
