Angela Glajcar: Scale Matters at Karin Weber Gallery


  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)

Karin Weber Gallery is proud to introduce ‘Scale Matters,’ the first Hong Kong solo presentation of new and selected works by renowned German sculpture artist Angela Glajcar.

Widely recognised for her ‘Terforations’ – a fictitious title coined from Latin ‘Terra’ and ‘perforations’ to suggest exploration of new territories – Glajcar interacts with thick sheets of paper or glass mesh to create her own breakthrough mindscapes.

With a recent focus on site specific monumental work, the artist returns to her favourite medium of paper to explore a new dimension in her work: scale. Glajcar’s latest pieces constitute a mix of larger scale, wall hung pieces, such as Terforation 2020-001 and Terforation 2021-001, to diminutive free-standing works, more suited to a tabletop than a vast museum space, in this show 2020-027 and 2021-061. Her recent ‘Paperwall’ series of boxed, wall mounted pieces celebrate alleged waste material from her ‘Terforation’ works, strips of which are bundled and mounted within their own frames to create tactile, curly, flowing celebrations of paper and its unlimited interpretations, such as Paperwall 2019-023.

Gallery address: 20 Aberdeen Street, Central
