Susanne Auslender (*1964, Saarbrücken) lives and works in Berlin, Germany. The artist pursued her studies in Sculpture and graduated in 1990 from the Akademie der Bildenden Künste in Munich. Since then, the visionary artist has already participated in renowned art fairs, including Art Cologne, Positions Berlin and Art Karlsruhe. Auslender’s sculptures, also known as Blumenstücke, represent a contrast in themselves: on the one hand she uses this rough and heavy wood, which is cut using a chainsaw. On the other hand, the artist choses the delicate flower as her main subject. Afterwards, the sculptures are painted in bright colours to highlight them magnificently. The oversized sculptures can also be found in public spaces, within Germany. Bloom marks the artist’s first exhibition in Luxembourg.
