Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster Panoramism and the Abstract Sector IV, 2022

Panoramism and the Abstract Sector is one of 12 individual panels that make up a 30-meter-long semicircular panorama. UV-printed on hand-primed linen, each panel is a collage of abstract and figurative motifs, of depictions of real-life and fictional characters, set along representations of the Berlin Wall. Especially conceived for her exhibition at Esther Schipper, Berlin, Panoramism and the Abstract Sector draws on the history of Berlin in the 20th century. Covered in lyrical abstractions in one section, abstract expressionist in others, depicted in paintings or blanketed with graffiti, the wall forms the backdrop for a myriad of figures and locations.
