Zittel occupies a special place in the art world. She’s part of the vanguard of artists who aim to reflect on art’s social role. Zittel’s work focuses on the fundamental questions of human nature – taking its subject matter directly from the act of day-to-day living. Especially for the museum, Zittel created a new installation: Flat Field Works (Middelheim Variant #1 and #2). Horizontal and vertical panels are made in different materials and colours; together they form units that have both an industrial and a domestic feel. You can enter the units and stay there to read a book, or study, or dream, or simply gaze around. Because Zittel’s interest lies not so much in the architecture or structures themselves, so much as in how they are experienced both physically and psychologically.
