Who decides who decides

Das aufwendig gestaltete und ausgestattete Künstlerbuch gibt einen umfassenden Einblick in Arbeiten und Arbeitsweise der dänischen Künstlerin Kirstine Roepstorff. „Above all, the Danish artist Kirstine Roepstorff (1972) is an observer of how we as humans are governed and bewildered by our own or commonly accepted interpretations of the reality. Beyond being a good observer, she is also a fantast and a provocative thinker, who translates her critcal approach to our time into strong visual scenarios. Roepstorff has always appropriated her artistic material from other contexts – with work ranging from large embroidered fabric banners to delicate curtains; from almost invisible wall and yarn drawings to colourful montages playing with a range of political cords. Roepstorff meanders between loudly visible manifestations addressed directly to the public and almost invisible interventions in the exhibition space that sneak up on the viewer like a private whisper.“ (Solvej Helweg Ovesen)
