Collection intervention by Amy Sillman
Over the years Sillman鈥檚 artistic practice has extended outward from the studio in many different directions, and has included lecturing, writing, publishing, and more recently, curatorial projects and interventions with museum collections. For the occasion of her solo show Amy Sillman. Oh, Clock! (until 2.2.2025) the artist has constructed a special installation chosen from the Kunstmuseum Bern鈥檚 own collection, which will remain on view until 2.11.2025. Guided by considerations of form, color, scale and site-specific relationships, Sillman has installed all of the works together against the activated ground of her own improvisatory wall paintings made on site. Thus, she has rethought abstraction not chronologically or thematically, but with a greater and more daring interweaving of epochs, continents and media, and between art objects and the architecture of the Kunstmuseum itself.
