Caro Niederer
During the IKT Congress 2024, delegates will have the exclusive opportunity to visit Gleis 70 artist studios and meet Caro Niederer (*1963 in Zurich, Switzerland), a contemporary conceptual artist currently living and working in Zurich.
Her own dynamic work engages with themes such as the contextual malleability of images throughout the arts and media, and the creative relationship between art and everyday life. Niederer’s work is multi-medial, incorporating various artistic and artisanal techniques such as painting, photography, video, hand-knotted Chinese silk carpets, furniture, porcelain, glasswork, tapestry, and multiples.
Recent major museum exhibitions include Kunstmuseum St.Gallen (2017/2018), CAC Malaga (2006), Haus Lange, Krefeld (2006), Douglas Hyde Gallery, Dublin (2005), Ikon Gallery, Birmingham (2005), Kunstmuseum St. Gallen (2004), Kunstverein Friedrichshafen (1995), and Kunsthalle St. Gallen (1994).
