The philosopher Leibniz had a theory of the so-called “separatrix,” the “between” two things that are contradictions. There’s always a line. On one side this is blue, and [on the other] this is red. In reality, red has embassies in the blue, and blue has embassies in the red. And Leibniz says fifty percent of this line, this structure “between,” is order, and fifty percent is anarchy. —Alexander Kluge In 2020 I ́ve realised the exhibition „Separatrix“ at Gagosian in Rome representing a new body of work. Envisaging the blank sheet of paper as a topographical record, I’ve experimented with a wet-on-wet technique using vibrant pigments, allowing them to swim and intermingle across the surface, leaving behind iridescent pools and blooms. With regards to this exhibition I ́ve started a collaboration with Alexander Kluge which resulted in the creation of the book Separatrix which will be launched next week. @Gagosian #KatharinaGrosseArchive #AlexanderKluge #Separatrix #Collaboration #Artistcollaboration _____ Artwork @ Katharina Grosse and VG Bild-Kunst, Bonn, 2022 Courtesy Gagosian Video by Leonardo Cestari
