Wiebke Siem
Hot skillet Mama
Kunstmuseum Den Haag is to present the first solo show in the Netherlands by German mixed-media artist Wiebke Siem (b. 1954, Kiel). Her installations, sculptures, textiles and fashion objects refer to art history and to 20th-century fashion and design. Above all, however, they are about the subordination of women, both in art and in daily life. Using themes like ‘domesticity’, and with great humour, Wiebke Siem exposes the social inequality she experiences.

Wiebke Siem
The Maximal Minimum
Wiebke Siem (1954 Kiel, DE – Berlin, DE) became known in the 1990s for extensive installations in which she alienated everyday objects, such as pieces of clothing, shoes, bags, or toys, or transformed them into oversized objects. She uses pieces of furniture, objects, and materials with domestic connotations and whimsical, often puppet-like figures to create psychologically charged installations that are as oppressive as they are humorous and that raise questions about societal role models. Siem’s art repeatedly employs a formal language and a mode of presentation that refer to ethnological objects and collections. This enables her to comment on Modernism’s problematic appropriation strategies toward non-European art. In addition to borrowing motifs from art and cultural history, Siem critically engages the mechanisms of the male-dominated art business – a central theme in her oeuvre.

The Maximal Minimum
Wiebke Siem (b. 1954 in Kiel), who was awarded the prestigious Goslar Kaiserring in 2014, is an important representative of contemporary art with an oeuvre that questions the boundaries between the genres of fashion, design and sculpture and engages in a rewriting of the history of modern art from a female perspective that is as knowledgeable as it is humorous.
