| book description |

Over the past 20 years the KiCo Collection has become one of the most important collections of contemporary art. Having started with Colour Painting, today it includes the entire spectrum of picture-related contemporary art, from panel paintings to installations. The catalogue shows central blocks of works from the collection, including masterpieces by Marcia Hafif, Maria Lassnig, Katharina Grosse, Wolfgang Tillmans and Olafur Eliasson. The KiCo Collection has been growing continuously since the 1990s. It originally directed its focus towards Colour Painting but later moved beyond the limitations set by the picture and also integrated expansive installations into the collection. The spectrum ranges from Eliasson's light installations to Tillman's photographic investigations which link visual found objects with a systematic media reflexion. It is precisely these forms of boundary crossing which make the KiCo Collection so topical. It shows impressively that the arts no longer allow us to confine them to the ghetto of individual genres, but that they draw their strength from interconnections and fusions of content and media.
