Hamburger Bahnhof – National Gallery of Contemporary Art is showing Klára Hosnedlová’s largest installation to date. The artist transforms the museum’s entrance hall into a utopian setting with flax tapestries, concrete, glass, metal, large-scale embroideries, sound, and site-specific objects. The work draws on architecture, films, and novels that have shaped the cultural memory of the border regions of today’s Czech Republic.
With the annual CHANEL Commission, the Hamburger Bahnhof provides a framework for large-scale installations and opens its historic hall for artistic reinterpretation.
