Michel Majerus – Early Works

“The exhibition Michel Majerus – Early Works at KW Institute for Contemporary Art seeks to uncover the earliest layers of Michel Majerus’ (1967-2002, LUX) artistic practice by showing works he produced between 1990 and 1996. Many of these pieces are on public view for the first time. The exhibition is dedicated to the beginnings of Majerus’ nationally and internationally celebrated work. Majerus’ artistic approach is already apparent in the early works created during his studies. These explore visual culture, time, speed and seriality as well as virtual and physical space. The artist’s continuous observations of surface and space as well as his inquiries into materials and techniques were essential to his methodological way of illuminating how images are produced. …”
