Original Signed Artworks & Limited Edition Prints For Sale

As a visual artist, Rebecca Horn’s work is aimed at challenging societal norms and subverting long-standing traditions – one of her most famous pieces to date is Einhorn (Unicorn), a body suit comprised of several fabric straps - designed to fit around the naked female body - and finished with a final strap that connects a long, tall cone to be worn atop the head:

« The transformation of the experience: that is pure art. »

this piece in particular highlights Horn’s fascination with the human body, and her desire to surpass the societal constraints that are often placed upon it.

« You try not to talk about the past too much as an artist. Instead, you focus on the continuity of your work. »
Rebecca Horn

Horn has also received a lot of recognition for her film directing – her films would often feature her sculptures and bodysuits, further highlighting their significance and meaning – Buster's Bedroom is perhaps the better known of her films, and perfectly highlights her fascination with the human body and its imperfections.

What is Performance Art?

Performance Art is a genre of fine art that is traditionally interdisciplinary, involving various art forms. It can be scripted or unscripted, random or carefully orchestrated, spontaneous, or meticulously planned, with or without audience participation. Performance Art can be presented live or through media, with the artist either present or absent. It typically involves four basic elements: space, the performer’s body or presence through a medium, time, and the relationship between performer and audience. The artwork consists of actions performed by an individual or group in a specific time and space.
