Katherina Olschbaur’s first New York presentation with Perrotin features large, meticulously reworked paintings that explore the body, space, and light. Her works layer gestures, figures, and fantastical elements, distorting scale and perspective to create worlds where desire, movement, and chaos coexist. Drawing from history, nightlife, and myth, Olschbaur examines connection, vulnerability, and the body’s potential, balancing allegory, intuition, and sensuality.
