Róza El-Hassan: In Between Drawings and Objects
BASEL, SWITZERLAND • Kunstmuseum Basel • 11 February - 20 May 2012 |
|
Over the past twenty years, Hungarian artist Róza El-Hassan's (b. Budapest 1966) drawings, objects, installations, and actions have earned her international recognition. In the earlier works, a conceptual approach predominates; since 1999, she has created diary-like drawings and collages. For the artist, who has Syrian as well as Hungarian roots, drawing as a research technique always also implies a quest for her own identity. Between ornament and protest, her drawings negotiate fundamental issues of artistic autonomy, political relevance, and aesthetic aspiration.
