The cosmos of Hanne Darboven
The publication concludes Julia Gaisbacher's long-time exploration of Hanne Darboven's Künstlerinnenhaus and at the same time continues her own work on "dream houses." The Viennese artist's photographs provide sensitive insights into Hanne Darboven's studios in the south of Hamburg in Germany. The five houses on the unique estate served as Darboven's living and working space for 40 years. To this day, the ensemble also functions as a treasury for thousands of objects and artworks. Gaisbacher's precisely composed black-and-white photographs of the rooms, whose seemingly chaotic abundance contrasts sharply with the strict order of Darboven's works on paper, create a compelling artistic dialog about time and space between the generations.

Hanne Darboven (1941-2009) lived and worked in Hamburg and is one of the most prominent conceptual artists of the 20th century. In the 1960s, she was among the earliest proponents of this groundbreaking international movement; she also was an attentive observer of her time and the historical and contemporary currents in politics, culture and society.

Julia Gaisbacher (*1983) lives and works in Vienna. She studied art history at the University of Graz and sculpture at the Dresden University of Fine Arts, as well as the Sint-Lukas School of Arts in Brussels. In her work, she applies methods of artistic research, an approach that focuses on architecture and the urban landscape as human living environments.
