In the solo exhibition God - Only she can give Absolution, Anouk Lamm Anouk continues their critical examination of speciesism (the view that humans are superior to all other species) - a central theme in their artistic work. A sculpture by the Austrian artist was already on display in the previous group exhibition MOTHER, which addressed the way humans treat animal life. In the spirit of anti-speciesism, Anouk Lamm Anouk grants the lifelike reproduction of a piglet in its cot the same right to integrity as a human baby.
With God - Only she can give Absolution, Anouk Lamm Anouk provides a comprehensive insight into their cross-media work and the ongoing design of a new society - free from exploitation, hierarchies and discrimination. At the center of the exhibition is a new installation developed especially for the gallery space. It translates this vision into a familiar visual language that is thousands of years old, thus linking concepts of the future with cultural memory.
