Add to basketNeuware - Context and time largely determine the work of Berlin-based Swiss artist Dunja Herzog. With strong connections to Africa since childhood days, she has had repeated extensive stays in Cameroon, Nigeria, and South Africa over the past two decades. Naturally, Herzog's art explores various cultural concepts. She constantly questions the concept of authorship and examines artistic attitudes from different perspectives. Equally important to her art is her fascination with materials and craftsmanship as well as a deep interest in social conditions and the streams of finance between Global North and South. This first monograph on Dunja Herzog offers a survey of her work since 2004. It highlights the key role that the materials she uses for her sculpture play as carriers of history, and how essential collaborations are in her creative process. The essays and illustrations demonstrate the evolution of Herzog's art over time and in various contexts, and reveal the possibilities for further development it bears. ; Kontext und Zeitpunkt bestimmen die Arbeit der Schweizer Künstlerin Dunja Herzog in hohem Masse. Seit ihrer Kindheit dem afrikanischen Kontinent verbunden, lebte sie während der letzten zwanzig Jahren immer wieder in Kamerun, Nigeria und Südafrika. So befasst sich auch ihre Kunst mit unterschiedlich geprägten kulturellen Konzepten. Autorschaft stetig hinterfragend, untersucht sie künstlerische Haltungen aus unterschiedlicher Perspektive. Ebenso wichtig für ihre Arbeit sind eine Faszination für Materialien und Handwerk sowie ihr tiefes Interesse für gesellschaftliche Bedingungen und Finanzflüsse zwischen Nord und Süd. Diese Monografie bietet einen Überblick über das Schaffen Dunja Herzogs seit 2004. Sie beleuchtet die wesentliche Rolle, die den Materialien ihrer plastischen Arbeiten als Träger von Geschichte zukommt, und wie essenziell die Kollaborationen für die Künstlerin sind. Deutlich wird aus den Textbeiträgen und Abbildungen aber auch, wie sich Herzogs Werke über die Jahre hinweg und in unterschiedlichen Kontexten verändern, welch neue Entwicklungsmöglichkeiten sie aufzeigen.
