In Sion, change scale and point of view thanks to the artist duo Lang/Baumann

Published on September 30, 2024 at 07:12. / Modified on September 30, 2024 at 07:14.

If the viewer makes the work, the work also shapes the viewer. The Swiss artists Sabina Lang (1972) and Daniel Baumann (1967), who have worked since 1990 under the name Lang/Baumann or L/B, have a way of thinking about space, shapes, colors, a way of to occupy places, to redesign them which makes you a special viewer.

Whether we like it or not, we find ourselves, faced with their work, engaged in a sort of hand-to-hand combat, forced to engulf ourselves entirely – sometimes literally – in the work. And here we are, like actors pushed on stage in a new costume, in a scenography that they are discovering, invited to change posture and point of view. In front of their giant sculptures, emotions jostle, a host of sensations, memories arise, and yet, there is no text, there is no action. Just different shapes, materials, colors, textures and scales.
