Quote from Bad Ragartz

Until November, 4 the 7th Swiss Triennial of Sculpture takes place in Bad Ragaz and Vaduz, with 400 works of art in the open air. There are also 9 sculpture network members. We asked them about their thoughts on their works.

Martina Launiger, Knoten 273-2-1, steel,  207x210x160 cm,  2018, Tamina-Promenade in Bad Ragaz

"After years of working around genetic engineering themes and exhibiting a chromosome sculpture in Bad Ragaz, I don't explicitly pursue a social theme with my knot sculptures. I'm interested in the forms, soft and soft-looking loops. 

The material steel is very important - it is rather regarded as a hard material. The gentle forms of the knot, however, show the formability and softness of the material."
