A Feminine Thought is the first institutional exhibition in Germany of the American artist B. INGRID OLSON (*1987 in Denver, lives and works in Chicago) and responds to the unique circular architecture in the basement of Villa Salve Hospes. A Feminine Thought shares its title with the sole large-scale work presented in the exhibition, which was created through Olson’s engagement with the idea and concept of the “Gesamtkunstwerk”.
The exhibition title refers to a work by Dieter Roth: Ein weiblicher Gedanke I & II (1971), an edition of two sheets depicting a woman as a table.
In her exhibition, the artist explores the objectification and reification of the female body by not controlling the spatial situation in the Kunstverein but approaching it sensorially and from a psychological perspective.
