ANGELA BULLOCH (Ontario 1955–lives and works in Berlin) Rock Table. 2000. Waxed birchwood, printed aluminium panel, white glass, diffusion foil, glass, assorted black cables, RGB lightning system. On the underside with the serial number: 11-2000/ MM. 100 × 50 × 50 cm. With the confirmation of authenticity by the artist. We thank Galerie Esther Schipper for their kind assistance. Provenance: - Galerie Schipper & Krome, Berlin. - Purchased from the above by the present owner, since then private collection Switzerland. The artist Angela Bulloch was born in Ontario, Canada, in 1966 and moved to England with her family in 1977. From 1985 to 1988 she studied at the renowned Goldsmiths College in London. From 2001 to 2002 she was a visiting professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna. In 2018, she became a professor of Time-Based Media at the Hochschule der Bildenden Künste in Hamburg and now commutes between Berlin and London. Angela Bulloch was one of the Young British Artists, which also included Damien Hirst, Tracey Emin and Sarah Lucas. However, she did not adopt a loud, provocative approach, but created calm, sensuous works. She uses sculptures, projections, installations and video installations to analyse systems, patterns and sets of rules. In addition, she explores the history of forms and human interaction. Through the use and combination of light, text, video and sound, she creates impressive multidisciplinary installations. In addition to numerous exhibitions worldwide, Bulloch received the Whitechapel Award in 1986, was nominated for the Turner Prize, the most prestigious contemporary art award, in 1997, and received the National Gallery Prize in Berlin in 2005. "Rock Table" is a variation on Bullochs Pixel Boxes with which she became famous. Her affinity with the icons of minimalism Donald Judd and Dan Flavin is emphatically demonstrated by these works. While in the Pixel Boxes the discs for the slightly pulsating light are attached to the sides, in our work they are on top. The light does not pulsate either, but offers three initial colours — red, green, blue — which can be combined at will to create different colours — from light pastel shades to almost neon, gaudy colours. This is integrated into a kind of high wooden table, which has a continuous opening at the bottom. However, in order that the play of light can be fully appreciated by the viewer, the height of the table is such that one can easily look down on it while the light shines upwards ANGELA BULLOCH (Ontario 1955–lebt und arbeitet u.a. in Berlin) Rock Table. 2000.

Ihre N?he zu den Ikonen des Minimalismus Donald Judd und Dan Flavin zeigen diese Werke eindrücklich auf. W?hrend bei den Pixel-Boxen**Scheiben für das leicht pulsierende Licht an den Seiten angebracht sind, liegt sie bei unserem Werk oben auf. Auch das Licht pulsiert nicht, sondern es gibt drei Ausgangsfarben – rot, grün, blau -,**man beliebig miteinander kombinieren kann, so dass unterschiedliche Farben – von hellen Pastellt?nen bis zu fast neon-farbigen, knalligen Farben - entstehen. Eingebunden ist dies in eine Art Bar-Tisch aus Holz, der unten eine durchgehende ?ffnung hat. Um das Lichtspiel für den Betrachter aber voll zu entfalten, ist der Tisch so hoch, dass man problemlos auf ihn schauen kann, w?hrend das Licht nach oben strahlt.
