The book surveys Genzken’s sculpture and installation work from the late 1970s through the mid-1980s — the period in which she developed her signature formal language: elongated concrete and epoxy forms, architectural references, and a rigorous engagement with space, material, and scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKlaus Honnef’s critical essay situates Genzken’s practice in relation to architectural modernism, drawing connections to El Lissitzky, Mart Stam, and the ABC group. The illustrations document key works including \u003cem\u003eRheinbrücke\u003c\/em\u003e (1983), \u003cem\u003eWeltempfänger\u003c\/em\u003e (1982), and the Kölnischer Kunstverein installation (1982), alongside earlier concrete sculptures photographed in situ.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cover reproduces a photograph of a glass door reflecting one of Genzken’s sculptures — an image that captures the spatial and reflective qualities central to her practice. The pale green cloth spine is characteristic of Verlag Silke Schreiber’s production values of the period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn important and now scarce document of Genzken’s early career, published before her international profile was fully established.
