''World Time Clock'' is the artist's most comprehensive photographic series to date, for which she has been travelling the different time zones of the world in several stages since 2008. In each of the places she photographed public clocks always at the same time, five minutes to two. Thus arose a work spanning the entire globe which examines the political and social organization of time and space.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Pousttchi |first=Bettina |title=Bettina Pousttchi - In recent years |last2=Köhler |first2=Thomas |last3=Heiser |first3=Jörg |last4=Strick |first4=Jeremy |last5=Ho |first5=Melissa |date=2020 |publisher=Koenig Books Ltd |others=Berlinische Galerie |isbn=978-3-96098-819-9 |location=London}}</ref> |

Bettina Pousttchi works in [[Photography#Art|photography]], [[sculpture]], [[video art|video]], as well as on site-specific architectural interventions in public space. |
|||
===Façades=== |
|||
Since 2009, Bettina Pousttchi has been realizing photographic interventions on public buildings. Her photo installation ''Echo'' on Schlossplatz in Berlin covered the entire exterior façade of the Temporäre Kunsthalle for half a year. Extending nearly 2,000 square meters, the installation consisted of 970 different paper posters, and formed a continuous motif that recalled the [[Palast der Republik]] (Palace of the Republic), the building which had just been demolished on that very site. |
|||
On the façade of [[Art Basel]] 2010, she mounted ''Basel Time'', a large photo installation that alluded to the imminent demolition of the hall as part of a redesign of Basel’s Messeplatz. At the [[Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt]], the artist presented the site-specific photo installation Framework (2012) in its rotunda and on its eastern façade. This work’s point of departure was the building’s historical and urban context. In London, she conceived the photo installation ''Piccadilly Windows'' (2013) for the [[Hauser & Wirth]] Gallery building on Piccadilly, covering their windows with a photographic pattern. In 2014, the artist transformed the Nasher Sculpture Center Dallas into a Drive-Thru Museum, referencing the site’s history and the architecture of the Renzo Piano building. Her most extensive photo installation to this point is ''The City'' (2014), which covered three sides of the Wolfsburg castle with a 2,150 square meter photographic print. The motif shows ten skyscrapers that have been the world’s highest buildings, grouping them together into an imaginary single transnational skyline. |
|||
===Photography=== |
|||
Pousttchi’s most extensive photo series to date is ''World Time Clock''. Since 2008 the artist has been photographing public clocks in different time zones around the world, always at the same time. The completed 24-part photo series premieres 2016 at the Smithsonian's [[Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden]] in Washington DC in a 360 degree presentation. |
|||
===Video=== |
|||
Between 1999 and 2002, Pousttchi produced primarily single-channel videos including ''Auf gute Nachbarschaft'' (To Good Neighbors; 1999), ''Die Katharina-Show'' (2000), ''Double Empire'' (2000), ''Reset'' (2001), and ''Line'' (2005). Since 2003, her videos have increasingly become part of three-dimensional works. For example, the video sculpture ''Landing'' of 2006 employed 10 monitors and 25 crowd barriers to create an atmosphere of enigmatic uncertainty. |
|||
===Sculpture=== |
|||
Crowd barriers and street bollards occur frequently in the artist’s sculptures and, in the tradition of object art, she transforms them. At the 2009 Venice Biennale, Pousttchi’s sculpture ''Cleared'', consisting of two crowd barriers made of security glass, was part of the [[Glasstress]] exhibition. |
|||
The sculpture series ''Double Monuments for Flavin and Tatlin'' debuted in her extensive solo exhibition at the Kunsthalle Basel 2011, curated by Adam Szymczyk. The [[Phillips Collection]] in Washington DC presents this group of sculptures in 2016 in dialogue with their collection. The use of these street objects address questions of limits, the forces at work therein, and the transformative energy released by passing them, underlining the artist´s transnational approach to her work. |
|||
==Collaborations== |
|||
Bettina Pousttchi is a member of the Brutally Early Club, founded by [[Hans-Ulrich Obrist]] and [[Markus Miessen]] in [[London]] in 2006 along with [[Shumon Basar]], [[Tom McCarthy (novelist)|Tom McCarthy]], Zak Kyes, Charles Arsene-Henry, [[Marina Abramović]], [[Ingo Niermann]], Sam Thorne and [[Jefferson Hack]]. This salon takes the form of spontaneous meetings in public cafés in London, Berlin, Paris, and New York. At 6:30 a.m., current issues in art, literature, and the sciences are discussed. In addition, she has realized installations in collaboration with the architect Markus Miessen and the artist Rosemarie Trockel<ref>Susanne Kaufmann: When Pousttchi met Trockel, in: ''[[Time (magazine)|Time]]'' magazine, 7 April 2003, 68/69</ref> and has taken part in a film by [[Lawrence Weiner]] (''How Far Is There'', 1999). She produced an interview video with [[Daniel Buren]] in 2010 on artistic practice in public spaces ''Conversations in the Studio #3''. |
|||
In 2016–2017 ''World Time Clock'' was shown at the [[Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden]] in a 360-degree presentation.{{r|hirsh}} After its initial full circle presentation at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington DC the series was also presented in Berlin at the [[Berlinische Galerie]], Museum of Modern Art Berlin in 2019/2020<ref>{{Cite web |title=Bettina Pousttchi, 'World Time Clock' |url=https://www.artlog.net/de/kunstbulletin-3-2011/bettina-pousttchi-world-time-clock |access-date=2023-07-21 |website=www.artlog.net |language=de}}</ref> as well as the Aurora Museum in Shanghai in 2023.<ref>{{Cite web |title=World Time Clock exhibition marks time at Shanghai Aurora Museum |url=https://en.shanghai.gov.cn/nw48081/20231127/a62d5f2026884aee9b9ee78c7ad53f4b.html |access-date=2024-08-20 |website=en.shanghai.gov.cn}}</ref> |

Bettina Pousttchi (born 1971) is a German artist of German-Iranian descent. She currently lives in Berlin. She has worked in sculpture, photography, video and site-specific installation.[1][2] [3]
Life
[edit]Bettina Pousttchi studied at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf under Rosemarie Trockel and Gerhard Merz (1995-1999). From 1999-2000, she participated in the Independent Studio Program of the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York.[2] [4] She had work in the Venice Biennale in 2003 and again in 2009.[2] In 2014, she received the Kunstpreis der Stadt Wolfsburg.[5] In 2016 she was a fellow at the Villa Aurora in Los Angeles.[6]
Work
[edit]World Time Clock
[edit]World Time Clock is the artist's most comprehensive photographic series to date, for which she has been travelling the different time zones of the world in several stages since 2008. In each of the places she photographed public clocks always at the same time, five minutes to two. Thus arose a work spanning the entire globe which examines the political and social organization of time and space.[7]
In 2016–2017 World Time Clock was shown at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in a 360-degree presentation.[8] After its initial full circle presentation at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington DC the series was also presented in Berlin at the Berlinische Galerie, Museum of Modern Art Berlin in 2019/2020[9] as well as the Aurora Museum in Shanghai in 2023.[10]
Sculptures
[edit]
Since 2005 Pousttchi’s sculptural works often use street objects like street bollards, crowd barriers or bike racks as a starting point.[11] She transforms these everyday objects into new sculptural compositions of various colors and surfaces. Her most recent sculptures Vertical Highways are transformations of crash barriers.[12] The vertical alignment and modular use of a prefabricated element change the viewer’s spatial perception and give the work an architectural reference.[13] By applying techniques such as bending or pressing, and reconceiving their coloring, Pousttchi relieves these everyday objects of their regulatory function and detaches them from their context of meaning, turning them into signs of change, fluid structures and dissolving boundaries. The first presentation of this new body of work took place in Berlin at the Berlinische Galerie on the occasion of the artist´s survey exhibition In Recent Years in 2019/2020.[11]
Three of these sculptures were presented at the Tuileries Garden in Paris in October 2021, as part of the outdoor exhibition Hors les Murs in front of the Musée du Louvre.[14] Her largest sculpture of this series is 6 meter tall (20 feet) public sculpture that is located in front of the Berlin Central Station at Washingtonplatz, one of the most frequented places in Berlin, vis-a-vis the Reichstag.[15]
Façades in public space
[edit]Since 2009, Bettina Pousttchi has been realizing photographic interventions on public buildings, which are related to the urban and historic context of each particular place. Her monumental photo installation Echo on Schlossplatz in Berlin covered the entire exterior façade of the Temporäre Kunsthalle for half a year and related to the urban history of Berlin. Extending nearly 2,000 square meters, the installation consisted of 970 different paper posters, and formed a continuous motif that recalled the Palast der Republik (Palace of the Republic), the building which had just been demolished on that very site.[16]
In 2014, the artist transformed the Nasher Sculpture Center Dallas into a Drive-Thru Museum, referencing the site's history and the architecture of the Renzo Piano building.[17] Her up to now largest photo installation to this point is The City (2014), which covered three sides of the Wolfsburg castle with a 2,150 square meter photographic print. The photomontage shows ten skyscrapers that have been the world's highest buildings, grouping them together into an imaginary single transnational skyline.[5]
On the occasion of her survey exhibition In Recent Years 2019-2020 at Berlinische Galerie, she transformed the entire glass facade of the museum with the photo installation Berlin Window.[18]
Konzerthaus Berlin commissioned the artist 2021 on the occasion of their bicentennial with the work, Amplifier transforming the historical building by Karl Friedrich Schinkel on Gendarmenmarkt.[19] For the Bundeskunsthalle Bonn the artist has realized in 2022/2023 the rooftop installation The Curve, a 37 meter long participatory sculpture that invited the viewer to use the object.[20]
Collections
[edit]Her works are held in various public collections, among them the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden and the Phillips Collection in Washington, D.C.,[21][22] the Arts Club of Chicago,[23] the Nasher Sculpture Center in Dallas, Texas,[24] the Berlinische Galerie in Berlin,[25] the Albertina in Vienna,[26] the Von-der-Heydt Museum in Wuppertal,[26] the Kunsthalle Bielefeld,[27] as well as in the collection of the Federal Republic of Germany.[28]
Collaborations
[edit]The artist has been realizing artistic collaborations with Rosemarie Trockel and Daniel Buren, she has been part of a film by Lawrence Weiner and she was a member of the Brutally Early Club[29] founded by Hans Ulrich Obrist.
