BIELEFELD.- A sense of ethereal lightness has settled over the city's art enthusiasts with the opening of Marguerite Hersberger's latest exhibition, "Floating Structures." The renowned artist, a key figure in the Zurich Concrete movement, is once again demonstrating her mastery of light, geometry, and space.

Following her acclaimed 2024 retrospective at Haus Konstruktiv, Hersberger's new collection of 25 works offers a compelling exploration of the interplay between surface, space, and light. Visitors are drawn into a world where geometric forms seem to dance, suspended in a delicate balance between materiality and the intangible.

"It's not just about seeing; it's about experiencing," shared one attendee during the exhibition's opening. "The way Hersberger manipulates light and shadow creates this mesmerizing, almost dreamlike environment."

Hersberger's dedication to the principles of Concrete Art is evident. Her works, characterized by their precise geometric forms and the use of translucent materials, create a dynamic visual experience. Layered planes and overlapping elements invite viewers to explore the subtle shifts in perception, a hallmark of her unique artistic language.

"She has this incredible ability to make solid forms feel weightless," commented art critic, Alexander Baumgarte, during an opening conversation with the artist. "It's as if she's captured the very essence of light and space."

The exhibition, titled "Floating Structures," is more than just a display of artwork; it's an immersive experience. Visitors are encouraged to move around the pieces, observing how the light changes and the forms shift, creating a sense of constant discovery.

Hersberger's journey as an artist is as fascinating as her work. From her studies at the School of Design in Basel to her time in Paris working with sculptor François Stahly, her artistic path has been one of continuous exploration and refinement. Her dedication has gained her many awards, and a firm place in the art world.

The exhibition is open to the public, and it is highly recommended for anyone interested in the concrete art movement, or those that simply want to experience a very unique artistic experience. The exhibition is a wonderful showing of how light and form can work together to create a space that is truly captivating.
