Das Was Ist
Ulla von Brandenburg’s distinct visual language draws on the traditions and tropes of theatre, the stage and colour theory. Her work Das Was Ist (That Which Is) is a series of curtains with circular holes installed in the entrance to the Palais de Tokyo in Paris as a part of her solo exhibition Le Milieu est Bleu.
"…the coloured curtains are a reference to theatrical history, but they can also be associated with the history of monochrome painting, or Brazilian art of the 1960s (…) The pierced curtains become a metaphor for photographic optics and the making of a frame…” (Laure Fernandez)
Reproducing this physical installation piece translates the work into a series graphically flat circles with hard borders between signature colour juxtapositions that create multiple non concentric edge-like puzzle pieces when played.
