Synopsis

The sixth retrospective organized by the project wir zeigen is dedicated to Georgia Creimer. This publication assembles works from the past years and presents her comprehensive, multifaceted oeuvre. The Portuguese word "incorporado" can be translated to incorporated. It would be difficult for a Brazilian citizen, however, to hear this word without thinking of the African Brazilian religious practice of Macumba, in which a spirit takes possession of a human medium. This form of hybrid appropriation oscillating between closeness to nature and artificiality, thus creating a state of "in-between" are the general elements that make up Georgia Creimer's works: "Her sculptures, objects, paintings, and photographs exist on the border between amorphousness and abstraction, between inorganic and organic--and are therefore part of a discourse of bringing knowledge processes 'to life' in which the changing transfers of fine art and life sciences have replaced the dualism of culture and nature." (Patricia Grzonka)
