Hemd / Jacke, 1998, by German artist Isa Genzken (b. 1948) is comprised of eighteen painted and collaged shirts and jackets on wire hangers, a key example from the artist’s radically inventive approach to materials. The work transforms found material—in this case, clothing worn by the artist—into dynamic objects that recall the entrancing energy of dance clubs and urban nightlife while critiquing the relentless cycle of consumer culture and mass production. Blurring the line between painting and sculpture, this work was mounted across a series of precast concrete blocks in the Passage of the Pavilions.
