Grace Schwindt, b. 1979 in Offenbach (DE), lives and works in London (UK).
Grace Schwindt works with film, live performance, sculpture and drawing. Through her work she unfolds visual narratives that explore the effects of capitalist culture on the body and psyche of the individual. She analyses the role that bodies, language and objects play in the construction of history and memory. Her process often originates from specific research and conversations with a wide range of people, including activists, artists, musicians, politicians, refugees and her own relatives. Many of her works examine aspects of historical events with an emphasis on social relations. The different media employed are connected and intertwined, shapes from costumes reappearing in drawings while sculptures echo performative gestures.
Schwindt's works have been shown in museums and galleries as well as in theatres and other performance contexts. She has had solo exhibitions at Kunstmuseum St.Gallen (St. Gallen), Kunsthal Gent (Ghent), Centre for Contemporary Arts (Glasgow), Rozenstraat – a rose is a rose is a rose (Amsterdam), Rose Lejeune Gallery (London), Institute of Contemporary Interdisciplinary Arts (Bath), MARCO (Vigo), Tramway (Glasgow), The Showroom (London), Site Gallery (Sheffield), Badischer Kunstverein (Karlsruhe), Contemporary Art Gallery (Vancouver) and Eastside Projects (Birmingham).
Live performances have been presented at Volksbühne (Berlin) and Kunstmuseum St.Gallen (St. Gallen), David Robert Arts Foundation (London) and Frascati Theatre (Amsterdam), Kaaitheater (Brussels), Royal Academy of Arts as part of Block Universe Performance Festival (London), Museum M (Leuven) and South London Gallery (London). Grace Schwindt has participated in the Busan Biennale (2022), the Anren Biennale (2017) and the Istanbul Biennial (2015). Her work has featured in group shows at Tate Britain (London), WIELS (Brussels), Imperial War Museum (London), Arko Art Center (Seoul), Garage (Rotterdam), Yorkshire Sculpture Park and Weserburg Museum in (Bremen).
Grace Schwindt joined the gallery in 2013.
Zeno X Gallery presents Grace Schwindt’s third solo exhibition, Lacuna. The show includes a large selection of sculptures and drawings created by the artist on the occasion of her recent solo exhibition at Kunstmuseum St.Gallen.
In her practice, Grace Schwindt (b. 1979 in Offenbach) brings together various disciplines, including performance, sculpture, drawings, installations and film. The interaction between these different media generates a multifaceted oeuvre whose different components keep inspiring and influencing each other. A central element of her work is her research into the vulnerability of the body, the relationship between humans and their environment, and the way history and memories are constructed in Western, capitalist society. She often draws on personal stories to explore how social relations and power structures determine the actions of individuals.
The title of the exhibition, Lacuna, is a term borrowed from the field of conservation and restoration. It refers to an absence, a void caused by damage or ageing. The surface is disrupted at the site of the void, which may or may not be restored. As such, the void creates potential for change or an opening to a new narrative.
For Schwindt, the void is like a wound that carries the mark of history, but it can also be a source of strength. The body is central to her work. Bodies – of people, animals and plants – bear traces of trauma, which is often historically rooted. Schwindt exposes these injuries and makes them visible. The wounded body appears fragile yet peaceful at the same time, and the injuries are accepted as part of life. In the bronze sculptures, the artist has applied a patina which functions like a skin that shows the traces of transformation. The glaze of the ceramics emphasises the wound as the site of potential for recovery and change. Works such as Head and Figure, In Two Parts and Becoming a Figure testify to Schwindt’s recent interest in broken sculptures, antique or medieval, which can in turn be linked to her broader focus on care and touch. For her, the fracture is a witness to time and to the interaction between the sculpture and its environment. The care provided by the conservator consists in weighing different options: showing the fracture as it is, replacing the lost element or restoring the broken parts. It is important to consider how to deal with this fracture and what possibilities the created void offers. In addition, the broken or injured bodies confront us with our view of our own bodies and, in doing so, the artist questions the generally accepted ideals of health and beauty.
Based on her fascination with nature’s adaptability, Schwindt often depicts bodies in a state of transformation. Adaptation is a necessary survival strategy in an unpredictable and ever-changing world. The liquid watercolour shapes, the fine pencil lines, the pools of black ink and the multi-layered patina and glaze seem to change and flow into each other. The materials and techniques used refer to the delicate balance between strength and fragility, violence and tenderness.
The large-scale sculptures Resting Point and Remembered Position were produced at Kunstgiesserei St.Gallen during her residency in Switzerland. These sculptures refer to The Boxer, a 2018 performance based on the story of Schwindt’s Jewish grandfather, who had to flee Nazi Germany by posing as a German soldier and who, when he was eventually captured, organized secret boxing matches as a survival strategy. The injuries he sustained in the process were the result of his own choice and symbolised for him a form of freedom: the realisation that his body was still his own. The large sculptures appear calm and resilient in their particular state of being. Their power seems to lie in their invitation to imagine transition and movement.
Besides her recent solo exhibition Defiant Bodies at Kunstmuseum St.Gallen, Switzerland, the artist was invited by Kunsthal Gent for a residency and accompanying solo presentation in 2022 and she participated in the Busan Biennial in South Korea. Other solo exhibitions took place at the Centre for Contemporary Arts (Glasgow), Rozenstraat – a rose is a rose is a rose (Amsterdam), Rose Lejeune Gallery (London), Institute of Contemporary Interdisciplinary Arts (Bath), MARCO (Vigo), Tramway (Glasgow), The Showroom (London), Site Gallery (Sheffield), Badischer Kunstverein (Karlsruhe), Contemporary Art Gallery (Vancouver) and Eastside Projects (Birmingham).
Performances have been staged at Volksbühne (Berlin), The Roberts Institute of Art (London), Frascati Theatre (Amsterdam), Kaaitheater (Brussels), Royal Academy of Arts as part of the Block Universe Performance Festival (London), Museum M (Leuven) and South London Gallery (London). Her work has further been included in group exhibitions at Tate Britain (London), WIELS (Brussels), Imperial War Museum (London), Arko Art Center (Seoul), Garage (Rotterdam), Yorkshire Sculpture Park, and Weserburg Museum (Bremen) and is in the permanent collections of Kunstmuseum St.Gallen, Kunsthaus Zürich, Teylers Museum (Haarlem), Arts Council Collection, Southbank Centre (London) and Kiyosato Museum of Photographic Arts (Hokuto).
Grace Schwindt (b. 1979, Germany) works not only across different themes and stories but also across different media. While in her first exhibition at the gallery she presented a film and a sculptural installation with vases, she now focuses on her drawing and sculptural practice. All of her works are connected by topics such as the fragility of the body, the importance of objects in the construction of memory and history, and the influence of capitalism on society.
In 2015 Schwindt went on a research trip to the Shetland Islands, where she talked to a birdwatcher who monitored the local seabird population for oil contamination. The moment the birder picks up a bird or part of a bird that has washed ashore and checks it for oil stains became for her a symbol of fragility and caring. The act of touching and getting in touch with the wounded or ‘broken’ animal, purposely without gloves, is understood by Schwindt as an optimistic gesture. The man accepts the animal with its injury and without prejudice, and this can be seen as a metaphor for a society in which citizens long to get in touch with strangers without the fear of the unknown.
The animals and human figures on show in this exhibition are often in a state of transformation or mutation. Prostheses – functioning as tools – emphasize rather than hide the absence of a body part. Wounds are included and are not seen as something that needs to be overcome. The drawings speak of a desire to go on, even when injured. Moreover, Schwindt does not perceive fragility and strength as antagonistic nouns, but rather as closely connected notions which appear together quite often.
On a figurative level the body is not only fragile in a physical or anatomical perspective, but also in a political, social and personal way. According to Schwindt, in a capitalist society it is easy to forget that our bodies are vulnerable because they seem quite abstract and death does not seem to exist – until it actually happens.
Schwindt explores the potential of the fragment to become a new whole by restoring its power. The injured body part should be honoured and it can also be conceived as a pars pro toto metaphor. Some of the sculptures seem to document or even contain movement as a way to preserve moments.
The When She… series of anthropomorphic sculptures, which in a sense resemble excavated antiquities, are made of ceramic mixed with stone. Schwindt is increasingly interested in developing techniques herself and in looking into the intrinsic qualities of materials. The past of a material is of great importance to her; she connects the histories and connotations of two materials, such as steel and wax, by literally bringing them together.
The ceramic sculptures and glass perfume bottles refer to the ancient tradition of offering different objects as gifts to the dead. For Schwindt the idea of the hereafter is a consequence of a desire to preserve life. In that sense her sculptural forms could also be read as containers of life, rendering an abstract idea graspable.
In 2018 Grace Schwindt will have a solo exhibition at Rozenstraat in Amsterdam. Her performance Opera and Steel, which premiered at the Kaaitheater in Brussels last year, will be reprised in March as part of the Something Raw festival in Amsterdam.
Schwindt has had solo exhibitions at Rose Lejeune in London, the Institute of Contemporary Interdisciplinary Arts in Bath, MARCO in Vigo, Tramway in Glasgow, Argos in Brussels, Contemporary Calgary, Site Gallery in Sheffield, Contemporary Art Gallery in Vancouver, The Showroom in London, Badischer Kunstverein in Karlsruhe and Eastside Projects in Birmingham, among many others. Her work has also been on view at the Anren Biennale of 2017, the Istanbul Bienniale of 2015, WIELS in Brussels, Arko Art Center in Seoul, Royal Academy of Arts in London, Weserburg Museum in Bremen, Tate Britain in London, Museum M in Leuven, Arnolfini in Bristol, etc.
We are delighted to introduce a first solo show by Grace Schwindt (°1979, Germany) at the gallery. Her new film installation Only a Free Individual Can Create a Free Society has already been shown at several institutions, often in relation to her sculptural work, and is now on view in Belgium for the first time. Only a Free Individual Can Create a Free Society was commissioned by FLAMIN Productions through Film London Artists’ Moving Image Network, Eastside Projects, Birmingham; The Showroom, London; Badischer Kunstverein, Karlsruhe; Contemporary Art Gallery, Vancouver; Site Gallery, Sheffield; Tramway, Glasgow; ICIA, University of Bath; and Zeno X Gallery, Antwerp. Supported by Arts Council England, Hessian Film Fund and The Jerwood Charitable Foundation.
With the thought-provoking title Only a Free Individual Can Create a Free Society, Grace Schwindt reflects on freedom. As often seen in her work, she digs into her own family history to question words, ideas, events or ideologies. She grew up in the region of Frankfurt at a time when the events of the Frankfurter School, the Outer Parliament Opposition and the Baader Meinhof Gang were a subject for political discussions in her family. In an attempt to revisit this particular period, she conducted an interview with a left-wing activist, a taxi driver, who reviews the political landscape of the 1960s and 1970s. This eight-hour-long conversation is one of the many components that structure the eighty-minute-long film. Everything, from the text to the camera movements, the dancers, the choreography, the objects, the light, the costumes, the architectural setting and the sound is equally important and must be seen as a whole, like a melody with a strict rhythm. The artist directs all these elements with great care and precision. In an interview, Schwindt describes her film as ‘a choreography’ or ‘score’ in which she develops a non-linear structure in which every movement, colour, shape and word is given a precise place. Although she deconstructs all these components into their most elementary appearance while eschewing expressive or emotional gestures or intonations in voices, nothing remains neutral. She is concerned with fixed visions and the idea of objectivity which is translated into a multi-layered perspective - according to her, a rather rare occurrence in capitalist society. She questions our current model of society and the way in which the individual is forced to navigate through it, both physically and mentally. Social relations and human behaviour are influenced by the structure and organisation of systems, spaces and life as such. This has an impact on one’s perception on freedom. The awareness of the body and its fragility always plays an important role in this research. The focus, in this respect, not only lies on the body of the performers, but on that of the viewer as well. For the first time, she approaches her new film as a film installation that consists of a wall of silk ribbons, organised according to a certain colour rhythm, which the viewer has to pass so as to enter into the darkened space to watch the film. Upon leaving the black box, viewers experience the sensation of the ribbons against their skin, heightening the awareness of their own body. In evoking a costume in the film, the intervention generates a déjà-vu effect. In this way, the artist seeks to expand and literally materialize the film and the experience thereof. Her designs for costumes, décor settings, objects and the movements of the bodies possess a sculptural quality, an aspect which she further explores in her autonomous sculptures. These are often connected to her films and performances and generally reference the same domestic context. Grace Schwindt meticulously combines and defines contrasting materials and forms in order to create tactile and suggestive sculptural works. She works with ceramic, burned furniture, glass, resin and several kinds of fabrics, with a preference for silk.
Through her oeuvre, Grace Schwindt investigates the meaning and location of live-ness in performances, film and sculptures. Live-ness, here, affects both the actor and the observer. Walking around one of her sculptures or through a film installation animates and activates the work and amplifies the experience. She envisions a broader and more intertwined relation between performer, observer and object, like actors that take on different roles and positions.
We are very proud to announce that the work Only a Free Individual Can Create a Free Society has been selected for Art Basel Unlimited 2015. During the festival Performatik in Brussels, her new film will be screened at Kaaitheater; other works will be on view at Argos Centre for Art and Media. At Kaaitheater, on March 26, Austrian dancer and choreographer Philipp Gehmacher will talk with Grace Schwindt on the use of props versus objects.
Grace Schwindt followed the residence programme at WIELS in 2012, during which she presented her film Tenant and a sculpture in two different group exhibitions. In 2013, she was invited by Museum M to present a new performance, Clean Air, at the Playground festival. Her films have been presented in several institutions, including, among others, Whitechapel in London, Nomas Foundation in Rome, Tate Britain in London, and the Centre for Contemporary Arts in Glasgow. In 2012 she had solo projects at Void Gallery in Derry and Collective Gallery in Edinburgh. Earlier, she was invited for a solo project at ICA London.
