Käthe Kruse – It’s All Good Now

“The artist Käthe Kruse (*1958) has been an integral part of Berlin’s art scene since the early 1980s. A member of West Berlin’s well-known music and artists’ group Die Tödliche Doris, she worked from 1982 to 1987 in the intersection between performance, music, text, painting, and film. To this day, Kruse also maintains a cross-genre approach and deliberate amateurism in her solo projects, creating large-scale installations that combine a variety of media and forms of expression. Her departure points frequently consist in everyday objects that she physically alters while assigning new meanings to them. Kruse’s works are often closely linked to her personal experience, but also reference larger social problems and topics such as domestic violence, abortion, and war. …”
