With the exhibition Shimmering, Walde Immobilien AG presents the works of Mona Kuhn, who is considered among the most respected and collectable photographers of her generation, at Haus der Immobilien in Zollikon.
The exhibition is beautifully embedded in the building's clean contemporary architecture, and brings together two of Kuhn's acclaimed series: She Disappeared into Complete Silence and Kings Road. In both bodies of work, Kuhn presents the nude with a humanistic approach by juxtaposing the elusive presence of a solitary figure with the elemental geometry of modernist architecture, thereby shifting figuration into abstraction and raising questions about presence and absence, memory and imagination.
Mona Kuhn has works held in major institutional and private collections worldwide. Born to German parents in São Paulo, Brazil, the American artist is a citizen of the world. With an open mind and an empathetic gaze, she distills the human figure to its essence through a reductionist yet poetic aesthetic, rendering it both intimate and universal.
