Katharina Grosse in an interview with curator Adam Budak about her exhibition at the National Gallery.

German artist Katharina Gross (* 1961) painted monumental paintings expressing a desire that can be seen as a gorgeous act of loving embrace related to space, construction, and viewer. For the National Gallery in Prague, Katharina Grosse has prepared a large-scale painting installation that radically redefines painting as a performative and structural medium and responds directly to the industrial space of a gallery built in the 1920s functionalist style. Wunderbild is an architectural, spatial image that the viewer places in his own body and mind. The color gains in volume, the flat surface gets a sculptural dimension, the image plane goes beyond the visual boundaries. The immeasurable installation of a magnificent scale resembles a medieval wall painting and a cave wreath with precious drawings, a post-theater hall with a re-engineered, intoxicating atmosphere. The image opens the environment; Katharina Grosse's gesture is an art that becomes space. * "I'm a painter," says the artist. "I'm interested in the space created by painting and the fact that it can appear anywhere, within the architectural environment and everyday life. The painting, as I see it, is not limited to the canvas or the wall. "According to Katharina Gross, the painting is a free expression of freedom. Her work, created for the National Gallery in Prague, is an explosion of painting generosity. Wunderbild* captures the gesturing moment of the apparition of the painting, and views it as a process characterized by extraordinary toughness and instability, like life itself, as a mental and physical obsession.
