Liesl Raff: Slant at Kunstverein Braunschweig
Experiencing the Site-Specific Installation by Liesl Raff
Visitors heading to Kunstverein Braunschweig can experience a major institutional presentation by artist Liesl Raff. Titled Slant, the solo exhibition occupies the ground floor of Villa Salve Hospes through September 27, 2026. Curated by Cathrin Mayer, the large-scale project marks the artist's first institutional presentation in Germany.
Born in Stuttgart in 1979 and currently based in Vienna, Raff is known for working with tactile and ambient elements. For this presentation, the artist has developed a site-specific installation that responds directly to the neoclassical architecture of the venue. By incorporating natural rubber, textiles, stage platforms, and light-permeable materials across the building's walls and windows, the intervention reshapes the spatial atmosphere of the villa.
What Visitors Can Expect
The resulting walk-in environments alter how viewers navigate and perceive the historic rooms. Rather than acting as a traditional display of static objects, the installation invites visitors to move through immersive spaces designed for contemplation and pause.
