Art for Ukraine
01 APRIL 2022 - 25 APRIL 2022Notes
The conditions and ambivalences of artistic production lie at the center of Sarah Bechter‘s practice. Blurring the lines between the private and the public, work and leisure, surface and line, Bechter‘s canvases exist as individual subjects and seem entangled in a vivid debate among themselves. The artist uses a wide range of techniques and references to interrogate the validity of the images she creates. Bechter invites the viewer to a game of hide-and-seek by often only hinting at protagonists and objects, infusing her works with a mysterious, dreamy atmosphere.
Sarah Bechter (b.1989) lives and works in Vienna. She studied painting at the University of Applied Arts Vienna and has participated in exhibitions in Vienna, Madrid, Budapest and Rome. Her works are represented in several public collections such as Artothekt des Bundes, Belvedere 21; City of Vienna and Wien Museum; State of Vorarlberg.
