‘Online Viewing Room’, Art Basel 2020
Exhibition
18 June 2020 – 26 June 2020
Galería OMR virtually exhibits Atelier Van Lieshout’s The Burghers, 2013 during this year’s online edition of Art Basel. The sculpture symbolizes the ever-present human dilemma: the choice between the known and the unknown, between security and insecurity, between tradition and progress. The figures represent the different emotions that people go through in a time of conflict: heroism, fear, rebellion, survival, escape, loneliness – a mass of humans, insecure, doubtful and chaotic.

Galerie Krinzinger virtually exhibits Atelier Van Lieshout’s Venus, 2010. The sculpture is inspired by the prehistorical Venus sculpture. This ancient goddess and mother figure refers to idolatry, fertility and primitive society in which women played a considerably more important if not dominant role.
