Ruth Schnell WORKBOOK: Mirrors of the Unseen

★★★★★
★★★★★

English

Hybrid spatial installations

Ruth Schnells work interrogates historical concepts of reality that are now being called into question by apparative perception. In the field of media art, Schnell has made a significant contribution to the understanding of this radical transformation: she has gone beyond the moving image, involved viewers in a participatory manner, and expanded object-like or sculptural art into immersive environments.

Deeply inscribed in her artistic approach is the reference to sociopolitical questions and the latest developments in technology. The monograph offers a documentary reappraisal and contextualization of Ruth Schnells work since 1983 and provides stimulus for enhancing competence in the field of media.
