Louisa Clement: becoming lost

Barbara J. Scheuermann (*1975, Bonn) is curator and art historian. 2007- 2009 she was curator for contemporary art at the Tate Modern in London, since 2016 she is head of the print room and curator at Kunstmuseum Bonn. Amongst others she published about Hamra Abbas, Christian Boltanski, Juan Munoz, Heidi Specker, and Candice Breitz; her dissertation 2006 about the narrative structures of art focussed on the work of William Kentridge and Tracey Emin. Louisa Clement (*1987, Bonn) uses the means of photography and sculpture to explore the continuing digitalization of human beings. Very concretely, the issue is how this living together looks when people and feelings are replaced by robots and algorithms. She thereby makes radical use of the possibilities of photography and sculpture. She was a student of Andreas Gursky at the Academy in Dusseldorf, exhibited since 2013 at Max Ernst Museum Bruehl, Kunstsammlung North-Rhine Westphalia Dusseldorf, Cite des international des Arts Paris, Wallraf-Richartz Museum Cologne, Sprengel Museum Hannover.

He has been an honorary professor at the Braunschweig University of Art since 2004. Barbara J.
