Description
The Resistance - Part II - Artist's book by Nina Staehli
In her 300-page artist's book The Resistance Part II, Zug-based artist and resident artist of the Hotel Beau Séjour Lucerne, Nina Staehli, brings together filmic works from the last ten years. Her iconic "Big Heads" - somewhere between sculpture, film and performance - roam urban and rural spaces in search of meaning in a world that has fallen apart at the seams. The visual worlds are poetic, absurd, socially critical - and invite free interpretation. Staehli does not narrate, she opens up spaces for thought and emotion.
Nina Staehli - Artist in Residence at the Hotel Beau Séjour
Nina's work explores central questions of humanity and the currents of our society. With a precise selection of media - from film and photography to sculpture and painting - she develops multi-layered perspectives that she condenses into narrative and site-specific installations. Her powerful cosmos impresses with a striking variety of materials and a depth of content that makes social contradictions visible and encourages viewers to reflect on the fault lines of human existence.
