MUNICH II marks the first collaboration between the gallery and Klaudia Schifferle, with a further solo exhibition scheduled for Gallery Weekend Berlin at the end of April. KLAUDIA SCHIFFERLE (b. 1955 Zurich), a founding member of the avant-garde women's band Kleenex (later known as LiLiPUT) in 1977, is internationally recognized as a painter, sculptor, musician, songwriter, and author. Inspired by the feminist ethos of the 1970s post-punk, new wave, and indie scenes, she intuitively and uncompromisingly traverses diverse media, techniques, and stylistic approaches. Her (visual) language is expansive yet distinctly defined, focusing on expressing emotional states of being. Remaining attuned to the pulse of the times, she delves deeply into the human experience through her unique perspective. Schifferle was awarded the Vordemberge Gildewart Foundation Prize (1983), the Zurich Art Society Prize (1988) and the Art Prize of the City of Zurich (2012).
