Weiss ist eine reine Erfindung.

Review on my show at Blitzkunst. For full article click here.

“Kunst ist immer abhängig vom Raum, in dem sie gezeigt wird. Mit der Installation eines Werkes steht man vor der Herausforderung, die Gegebenheiten des Raumes zu nutzen und sich gleichzeitig dagegen zu behaupten. Ten Bosch hat diese beiden Notwendigkeiten zu einer Einheit verbunden und überlässt dem Betrachterauge die Entscheidung über die Gewichtung zwischen Kunst und Raum.” – Annika von Taube at Blitzkunst.wordpress.de
