Thoughts, conversations, impressions

Although Ross Bleckner did not travel in person from New York to Seefeld for the opening of his exhibition at the end of June 2024, he did contribute his thoughts in the form of a written piece for the catalogue published to mark the exhibition. „Any interest I have in flowers is actually an interest I have in pictures of flowers,“ he says there, for example. For him, the images are placeholders for light and darkness. They allow us to find beauty when it seems as though the world around us is falling apart. The flower images on display at KiS date from 1995 to 2022 and mark different stages in Bleckner’s life, which he has translated into art.
