rebecca horn
Rebecca Horn was born in 1944 in Germany where she grew up to become one of the most illustrious contemporary German artists of the twentieth-century. She is still currently living and now lives all over the world having homes in New York, Berlin, and London. Her unusual and intense performance pieces have brought her a spot in the art books. In her work, she combines a variety of media: video, performance, installation, and sculpture, which are very characteristic of her style (csw).Horn's pieces speak to explore the themes of sexuality, human vulnerability and emotional fragility (artfilm). Her references to the human body and the human soul are reoccurring in many of her pieces. Rebecca Horn is more recognized to bring a fascination with transformation, a loss or failure to attain, a sense of fragility and survival, and the passage of time itself into her performance pieces (Wilkins, Karen). She brings to her works reoccurring references and themes like the eggs, the pendulums, the birds, the alchemical fluids, the allusions of hermetic transformation, and utopian quest according to Wilkins. Almost all of Rebecca Horn's pieces are made from "non-art" materials, partly of choice and partly of necessity.
