Automatik is a comprehensive presentation of works by artist Margaret Raspé. Shown in cooperation with the Haus am Waldsee in Berlin, the exhibition elucidates the singularity of Raspé’s artistic production over the past 50 years. Her primary focus is on the balancing of various processes of perception and observation, which she explores via such diverse media as film, drawing, painting, performance, installation, audio, and photography. Other central themes are bodywork and concrete poetry, along with her approach to civilisational critique and a continuous commitment to nature and environmental protection. Her works are experimental arrangements through which she investigates the automatism involved in states of unconscious activity.
