The work
Nine blue silhouettes, each edged in white, stand out against a saturated red organized in a 3 × 3 grid. The forms are related, never identical: bodies, signs, fragments of gesture.
As with its blue counterpart, each silhouette is a cut-out collage, lifted from the canvas. A darker undertone sometimes appears at the edge and makes the contour vibrate. The white is the thickness of the cut, not a painted line. The work reads at two distances: graphic from afar, material up close.
Artist biography
Gundi Falk, born in 1966 in Salzburg, is a painter, sculptor and contemporary dancer by training. She studied dance and calligraphy in Asia and Europe.
Based in Brussels for many years, she develops a practice where movement, rhythm, chance and space are inextricably linked. The line is not a descriptive contour: it is the trace of a moving body.
Since 1998 she has exhibited internationally. Notable exhibitions include
: Gallery at the Assignment Theater, Taipei (1998);
Grand Casino Bern (2005); Le Corbusier, Marseille (2006);
Museum of New Art, Pärnu, Estonia (2009-2010);
Galerie Vertigo Art and Le Salon d’Art, Brussels (2011, 2014).
From 2011 she collaborates with Pierre Cordier, inventor of the chemigram (1956). Their joint works have been shown at Von Lintel Gallery, New York (Unique, 2013); Haines Gallery, San Francisco (Index and Icon, 2015); The Heckscher Museum, New York (Modern Alchemy – Experiments in Photography, 2014-2015); Paris Photo (2016); Galerie Volker Diehl, Berlin (2016); Barbado Gallery, Lisbon (2016); Galerie Anna Wenger, Zurich (The Chemigram, 2018); Galerie Gimpel & Müller, Paris (DUO, 2020-2021); Hangar Photo Art Center, Brussels (UNIQUE / Beyond Photography, 2024); La Centrale.brussels (Hosting, 2024).
In parallel, her pictorial work — interlacings, constructions of nudes, lineworks — has notably been presented at Espace Art by Goralska, Luxembourg (Entrelacs – Espace de dynamisme et de souffles, 2022), RSF Paris (2025) and Galerie Marschner, Wels (Lebenslinien, 2025-2026).
Her works are held in private collections in Europe, the United States and Asia.
