The exhibition conceived by Roni Horn specifi cally for the Kunsthaus Bregenz is the first comprehensive one-person show by the internationally renowned New York artist in Austria. Spanning four floors, the presentation at the KUB presents major works of recent years, thus allowing visitors to gain deep insight into Roni Horn’s artistic practice.
The density implied in the exhibition title “Well and Truly” arouses spatial-sculptural associations of depth, rootedness, and a fundamentally vertical orientation.
