Description

The first book on Dunja Herzog and the influence of African culture on her work. With strong connections to Africa since childhood, Berlin-based Swiss artist Dunja Herzog has spent extensive time in Cameroon, Nigeria, and South Africa over the past two decades. Naturally, Herzogs art explores various cultural concepts, and she constantly questions the idea of authorship from different perspectives. She is fascinated with materials and craftsmanship and holds a deep interest in social conditions and the streams of finance between the global North and South. This first monograph on Dunja Herzog offers a survey of her work since 2004. It highlights the key role that the materials she uses for her sculpture play as carriers of history, and how essential collaborations are in her creative process. The essays and illustrations demonstrate the evolution of Herzogs art over time and in various contexts and reveal the possibilities for further development.
