Katharina Fritsch

Matthew Marks, 522 W 22nd St New York / Chelsea
Exhibition on view: May 7, 2026 - Jun 27, 2026

Katharina Fritsch presents five large-scale sculptures, three of which return to models Fritsch originally made as a student in Düsseldorf in 1979. Now realized at monumental scale, Car and Caravan stretches over thirty feet, Tunnel runs twenty-six feet in dark green, and Chimney stands thirteen feet tall in red — each modeled after toys or hand-built studio maquettes. Together with Vase and Shell, the five sculptures are arranged to loosely resemble a face when viewed from above. Familiar imagery is pushed to destabilizing ends, performing what one critic calls "material transubstantiation on quotidian stuff."
