Kiki Kogelnik: Fly Me to the Moon

Kiki Kogelnik: Fly Me to the Moon

Softcover | 19 x 1 x 25 cm | 80 pp

Modern Art Oxford | 2015 | 9781901352641

Edition of 1,000

This catalogue was published to coincide with the first solo exhibition in the UK of acclaimed Austrian artist Kiki Kogelnik (1935-1997) at Modern Art Oxford. The publication covers all works featured in the exhibition.

Working in New York in the 1960s, Kogelnik was a well-known artist and contemporary of figures such as Roy Lichtenstein and Andy Warhol. Throughout her career, Kogelnik employed an exuberant palette, which belied its often apocalyptic subjects; from macabre skulls and severed limbs to disembowelled figures. These deathly bodies, rendered disposable in an increasingly mechanised world, sound a note of caution in an era continually transformed by new technology.

This is a survey of Kogelnik’s creative practice, considering her journey and contribution in the context of postwar society.
